Carberry Airport

The most likely reason for closure is the private owner ceasing operations, followed by the conversion of the land for agricultural use. Small, private airstrips often close due to economic factors, such as the high cost of maintenance, insurance, or the owner's retirement or sale of the property. There is no evidence to suggest the closure was due to an accident or military conversion.

The site of the former airport has been completely reclaimed for agricultural purposes. Current satellite imagery of the coordinates (49.849998, -99.316665) shows the land is now an active, cultivated farm field. There are no remaining visible traces of the runway, taxiways, or any aviation-related infrastructure such as hangars.

This airport, identified by the unofficial ICAO code CA-0082, was a small, private grass airstrip. Its significance was purely local, likely serving the personal recreational flying needs of its owner and possibly local agricultural aviation (crop dusting). It is crucial to distinguish this small airstrip from the historically significant RCAF Station Carberry (also known as No. 33 Service Flying Training School), a major World War II British Commonwealth Air Training Plan (BCATP) base, which was located several kilometers northwest of this site. CA-0082 had no connection to the WWII military operations and consisted of a single turf runway used by light, general aviation aircraft.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening this airport. The land has been fully integrated into the surrounding farmland, and all aviation infrastructure has been removed. Re-establishing an airport at this location would require purchasing the land from the current owner and constructing all facilities from scratch, which is highly improbable.
