Jandakot Airport (IATA: JAD, ICAO: YPJT) is a general aviation (GA) airport located in Jandakot, Western Australia, about 20 kilometres (12 mi) south-southwest of the "general aviation area of the Airport West precinct" at Perth Airport.[3][a] Jandakot airport opened in 1963. From 1 July 1998, Jandakot Airport Holdings purchased a 50-year lease with a 49-year option to operate and maintain the airport including its conservation areas.
Originally built on unproductive farm lands, it is now among residential suburbs in the south of the Perth metropolitan area, within the City of Cockburn, and just south of Leeming and west of Canning Vale.
Jandakot Airport is "the busiest general aviation airport in Australia in terms of aircraft movements".[4]: 2 The airport recorded 208,778 aircraft movements in the fiscal year ending 30 June 2018, making it the sixth-busiest civilian airport in Australia in that period as measured by aircraft movements.[1] The airport reported 275,506 aircraft movements in the fiscal year 2011, making it the busiest civilian airport in Australia in terms of aircraft movements in that financial year.[5] Jandakot Airport has a theoretical operating capacity of 526,000 aircraft movements per annum, which could be reached "within the 20-year planning horizon of" the 2014 Jandakot Airport Master Plan.[4]: 2
