P C Pelser Airport — Klerksdorp, South Africa

P C Pelser Airport serves the town of Klerksdorp in South Africa's North West province, in the gold-mining and farming country southwest of Johannesburg. At an elevation of about 4,444 feet on the high interior plateau, it has three runways of asphalt and grass, the longest near 4,921 feet, suited to general aviation and lighter traffic. Klerksdorp is one of the older mining towns of the region, set on the highveld where distances between centers are considerable. The airport supports business and general flying rather than major scheduled service. The KXE code identifies this field, serving a North West town whose economy is rooted in the gold and agriculture of the surrounding highveld.
