The airstrip was situated five kilometres to the left of the Mullaitivu lagoon. It was two and half kilometres in length and 100 meters wide.
The three airstrips at Panikkulam Ampakamani which were captured earlier by the Forces were situated close to the main road, but this airstrip had been built at a secret locatiImageon in the thick jungle and was much bigger than the other three airstrips.
