Urubupungá–Ernesto Pochler Airport, formerly (IATA: URB, ICAO: SBUP), was an airport that served Castilho and Urubupungá Complex, in Brazil until 2003, when services were suspended. It was closed and abandoned and in 2005.
Urubupungá–Ernesto Pochler Airport was built by CESP as a support structure for the operation of the Urubupungá complex, formed by the hydroelectric plants Ilha Solteira, Jupiá and Três Irmãos on Paraná river.
In 1984 the facility was transferred to Infraero,[1] and a few years later, before 2003, it was transferred to DAESP.[citation needed]
In 2003 services were suspended due to bad conditions of the runway and in 2005 it was closed and abandoned.[2][3]
