Location
Paine, Chile
Juan Enrique Airport (ICAO: SCAU) is a small general aviation airfield located near Paine, a commune in the Maipo Province of the Metropolitan Region of Chile, situated south of Santiago.

It is one of several minor aerodromes in Chile's central region managed under the country's civil aviation regulatory framework overseen by the Dirección General de Aeronáutica Civil (DGAC).
Due to its limited size and general aviation focus, the facility lacks the commercial infrastructure typical of larger airports, and detailed publicly available operational data is sparse.
