Taking Flight: Analysis of Timor-Leste Civil Aviation and Recommendations
Sakai, Tatsuo | May 2017
Abstract
This paper provides insight into the current state of civil aviation in Timor-Leste, and in so doing, develops an evidence base for broader policy formulation. It analyzes key issues facing Timor-Leste’s aviation industry and arrives at recommendations for the Timorese government, not based on a distant policy goal or ideal environment, but rather on what is feasible, affordable, and practical for Timor-Leste to accomplish with minimal investment.
This paper builds on research conducted in Timor-Leste. The author conducted desk research and interviewed government officials including Civil Aviation Authority of Timor-Leste (AACTL) staff, and private operators in the aviation market, including airlines and handling servicers. Research also included study of Presidente Nicolau Lobato International Airport (DIL) in Dili and local airports in Baucau, Same, and Atauro. Research was conducted from June to August 2016.
