Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 25, 2025
Closure Date

Circa 2010-2012. The exact date is not documented, but the aerodrome stopped appearing in official publications like the Canada Flight Supplement (CFS) around this period, indicating it was officially decommissioned.

Reason for Closure

The specific reason for the closure is not publicly documented, which is common for small, private airfields. Closure was likely due to reasons related to the private ownership of the land, such as the owner selling the property, ceasing personal flying activities, the high cost of maintenance and insurance, or a desire to convert the land fully to agricultural use.

Current Status

The site is currently private agricultural land. Satellite imagery shows the clear, faint outline of the former northwest/southeast grass runway. However, the area is no longer maintained as an airfield and appears to be fully integrated into the surrounding farmland, used for growing crops or as a hayfield. There are no remaining aviation facilities or aircraft on site.

Historical Significance

Inkerman Private Aerodrome was a small, general aviation airfield serving private, recreational flyers. It was not a commercial or military airport. Key details of its operation include:
- **Identifier**: It was registered with the ICAO location indicator CA-1213.
- **Operations**: It handled light, single-engine aircraft (e.g., Cessna 172s, Piper Cherokees, ultralights). Operations were strictly 'Prior Permission Required' (PPR), meaning pilots had to obtain permission from the owner before landing.
- **Runway**: The aerodrome featured a single turf (grass) runway, designated 14/32, with a length of approximately 2,400 feet (732 meters).
- **Significance**: Its significance was purely local, providing a base for the owner and invited members of the local aviation community to pursue recreational flying in the Eastern Ontario region.

Reopening Prospects

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the Inkerman Private Aerodrome. Given that the land has been repurposed for agriculture for over a decade, and the significant cost and regulatory hurdles involved in certifying an airfield, it is highly unlikely to ever be used for aviation purposes again.
