Actually I think you've got two different fields there SD. First – (to the West) is the old Howard AFB - as TCF correctly says – now Aeropuerto ... ... Panama Pacifico. Second (to the East) is I think, Marcos Gelabert "Intl" - the former Albrook Field. About 5 miles apart, either side of the Panama Canal – Pacific entrance. LFH. ps thanks Dave, I was referring to El Wimbledon in the former British Honduras.
