Gordil Airport (IATA: GDI, ICAO: FEGL) is an airstrip serving Gordil, a village in the Vakaga prefecture of the Central African Republic. The airstrip is 5 kilometres (3.1 mi) southeast of Gordil alongside the RN8 road in the northern part of Manovo-Gounda St. Floris National Park.
The runway is unusable during the rainy season, and aircraft have to do steep departures and landings in order not to disturb the wildlife in the park. The east end of the runway overruns onto the RN8 road.
