Lede Kalumbang Airport (Indonesian: Bandar Udara Lede Kalumbang) (IATA: TMC, ICAO: WATK), formerly Tambolaka Airport, is an airport in Tambolaka, Southwest Sumba Regency, East Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia. A new terminal inaugurated in 2015 expanded passenger services. A cafe and shops are available at the terminal, and there is a car park and some taxi stands outside the terminal.
On February 11, 2006, Adam Air Flight 782, registration number PK-KKE, lost navigational and communications systems twenty minutes into a flight from Jakarta to Makassar, South Sulawesi. The plane was subsequently flown into a radar "black spot" and was lost for several hours, eventually making an emergency landing at Tambolaka Airport, Sumba (on a different island 481 km away from their intended destination, and southeast from their origin, instead of north-east). The pilot was fired because the Adam Air flight violated multiple safety regulations, including removing an aircraft before it was due for inspection by aviation authorities.[2]
