Domine Eduard Osok Airport, located in Sorong, Southwest Papua, Indonesia, is one of the largest and busiest airports on the Bird's Head Peninsula. It replaced a smaller, former World War II airfield, Jefman Airport on the island of Jefman. The airport is named after Domine Eduard Osok, a pastor originating from Sorong and known for doing missionary work and spreading Christianity in Sorong and the surrounding parts.
