Paradise Hill Airport

No official reason for the closure has been published. Given that the airport was a small, private strip and the land has since been fully converted back to agricultural use, the closure was almost certainly due to economic factors or a decision by the landowner to repurpose the property. This is common for small, private aerodromes where the cost of maintenance, insurance, and taxes outweighs its utility, making farming the land a more viable option.

The site of the former Paradise Hill Airport has been completely reclaimed for agriculture. Current satellite imagery of the coordinates shows that the former runway and any associated facilities have been removed, and the land is now an active, cultivated farm field, indistinguishable from the surrounding farmland.

Paradise Hill Airport was a small, private aerodrome, and its significance was entirely local. It was not part of Canada's national airport system, as indicated by its non-standard identifier 'CA-1051' (official Canadian airports typically have a 'C' prefix, e.g., CYVR). Operations would have been limited to general aviation, likely consisting of small, single-engine aircraft used for recreational flying, private transport for the landowner, or potentially agricultural applications like crop dusting. It did not handle any scheduled commercial, cargo, or military operations.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the airport. As the land has been fully repurposed and integrated into a working farm, the likelihood of it being converted back to an aerodrome is virtually zero. Re-establishing an airport would require significant private investment and the cessation of current agricultural operations, for which there is no apparent demand or driver.
