Fancy Lake Water Aerodrome

Administrative delisting. The aerodrome was removed from the official Canada Flight Supplement (CFS) and the national airport directory. For small, often privately operated facilities like this, closure is typically due to the operator no longer wishing to maintain the official registration, ceasing aviation activities, or selling the associated property. It was not closed due to a specific accident, military conversion, or major economic event.

The site is no longer a registered aerodrome. Fancy Lake is a public body of water used for general recreation, including boating, swimming, and fishing. The specific coordinates for the former aerodrome point to a location on the water's surface. Any land-based infrastructure that may have existed, such as a private dock, ramp, or hangar on an adjacent property, has reverted to private, non-aviation use and is no longer identifiable as part of an aerodrome.

Fancy Lake Water Aerodrome was a registered base for seaplanes (floatplanes) located on Fancy Lake. It primarily served general aviation, supporting private and recreational flying for local pilots. Its operations would have been seasonal, limited to the ice-free months. It was not a commercial airport and had no scheduled passenger or cargo services. Its significance was purely local, providing a registered and recognized take-off and landing area for the region's floatplane community.

There are no known plans, proposals, or discussions to reopen Fancy Lake Water Aerodrome. Re-establishing a registered aerodrome at this location would require a private or public entity to complete a new registration process with Transport Canada, and there is no indication of any such intent. The prospects for its reopening are considered non-existent.
