Location
Carnot, Central African Republic
Carnot Airport (IATA: CRF, ICAO: FEFC) is a small domestic airport serving the town of Carnot in the Mambéré-Kadéï prefecture of the Central African Republic.

It plays a role in connecting Carnot, a town historically associated with diamond mining, with the capital Bangui and other regional destinations.
