๐จ๐ฆ Greenwood, Canada
Royal Canadian Air Force base; limited civilian access.
CFB Greenwood operates as a shared military-civilian facility with specific access requirements. Civilian aircraft must either register with Freedom Aviation Society or obtain Prior Permission Required (PPR) before arrival. Since the closure of Kings County Municipal Airport in 2016, all civilian operations relocated here. The airport features a 2,500-meter runway with joint military-civilian air traffic control services. Be aware that IFR approaches may not be operational for civilian aircraft due to obstructions - always check NOTAMs before arrival. For commercial airline connections, passengers typically transfer via Halifax Stanfield International (YHZ), located 91.5 miles away with a 1 hour 41 minute drive. The civilian ramp area is operated separately from military operations with dedicated parking and facilities. Contact Freedom Aviation Society at 566 Ad Astra Way for specific operational requirements and current fuel availability. Ground handling services are available but advance coordination is recommended. Military personnel on base can provide assistance with civilian operations coordination when needed.
CFB Greenwood is an active military base; civilians must coordinate arrivals with base ops and carry photo ID for gate access.
