Port Kaituma Airport (IATA: PKM, ICAO: SYPK) is an airport serving the village of Port Kaituma, in the Barima-Waini Region of Guyana.
Port Kaituma Airport made headlines on 18 November 1978 when US Congressman Leo Ryan and his team boarded a De Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter with registration 8R-GEJ.
Ryan had been investigating the Peoples Temple cult of Jim Jones.
The aircraft carrying 16 people was about to depart, when it was attacked by armed commune members.
A Cessna 310G carrying six defectors from the cult was also attacked resulting in two injuries.
