About Ottawa / Rockcliffe Airport
Overview
Ottawa / Rockcliffe Airport serves the Ottawa metropolitan area as a medium-sized airport located in eastern Ontario, Canada. Situated at coordinates 45.460300, -75.646103, the airport provides an important aviation facility for the region's general aviation and utility operations. Its elevation of 188 feet above mean sea level positions it in a relatively flat urban terrain.
Flying Conditions
The airport's location in the Ottawa region typically experiences variable weather conditions with significant seasonal changes characteristic of eastern Canadian climate. Winter operations may present challenges with potential snow and ice, while summer can offer more stable flying conditions. Pilots should anticipate potential wind variations given the airport's open terrain and proximity to urban landscapes.
Notable Features
Rockcliffe Airport features a single asphalt runway (09/27) measuring 3,300 feet in length, which accommodates a range of general aviation aircraft. The runway's orientation suggests potential crosswind scenarios depending on prevailing wind directions. Its urban location near Ottawa implies potential airspace complexity and the need for precise navigation and communication.
Approach Considerations
Runway 09/27's substantial 3,300-foot length provides reasonable operational flexibility for most general aviation aircraft. Approach planning should consider potential wind shifts and urban terrain influences. Pilots should maintain heightened situational awareness due to the airport's proximity to the Ottawa metropolitan area and potential air traffic variations.
