April 2019 NEWSLETTER April 2019 NEWSLETTER “A national organization dedicated to promoting the viability of Regional and Community Airports across Canada” www.rcacc.ca RCAC MEMBER AIRPORT PROFILE: Campbell River Airport (CYBL) - Part 2 The Campbell River Airport is designatedJJul as a Port of Entry; our runway is 6,500 feet by 150 feet. Two parallel taxiways (Bravo and Charlie) offer easy access to the runway of choice. Aircraft parking options include grass tie down area, itinerant paved parking and commercial operational stands. The airport regularly serves aircraft from Cessna 150’s up to Boeing 737’s, Globals, Gulfstream’s and all other corporate clients, our infrastructure is build to a pavement load rating of 12. Our friendly maintenance staff provides excellent customer service to all airport users, staff also provides aviation fuel. Our low key approach provides corporate clientele discrete access and egress from our facility. The Air Terminal building has recently been modernized amenities include, two commercial airlines Central Mountain Air and Pacific Coastal Airlines the Fuel up Café, Budget and National car rentalsJj and passenger screening by G4S contracted to CATSA. The public parking lot is monitored by video surveillance 24/7 we offer short term and long term parking solutions. Campbell River Airport YBL has a strategic advantage as a leading location for Aviation. First, it is located in the Centre of Vancouver Island; a small plane or helicopter can make it to any point on the island within 1.5 hours. Second it is also close to the narrows between the mainland and the island. An aircraft does not need to fly over a large stretch of water to get over to the mainland. This may seem insignificant, but it is a huge flight planning obstacle for small airplane/helicopters. Third, you can fly low level in poor weather from Campbell River Airport YBL to the West Coast through Gold River and from Campbell River Airport YBL to the BC interior through Knight Inlet. No other airport has this advantage on the island. Campbell River Airport YBL has many small islands close by that have a unique blend of communities and industry which need aircraft support. Islands south of Campbell River Airport YBL are residential based, ferry supported and have little need for commercial aircraft. Islands north of Campbell River Airport YBL are mostly industrial based with less residential area. All the lodges on Stuart Island, Sonora Island and Dent Island would have much more difficulty operating without aircraft support from Campbell River and Campbell River Airport YBL. To confirm this, all you need to do is look at the number of helicopter and floatplane operators in Campbell River. The number is higher than any other town on the West Coast apart from Vancouver. Campbell River is the aviation hub for Vancouver Island. Campbell River Airport YBL is the only airport on the island that has all the aviation services (ILS, high visibility lights etc) and ample room to expand. One of the biggest difficulties airports face is room to grow. Most airports are located conveniently close to a town, which over time; residents wish the airport was not there. Any expansion is always treated with resistance. Edmonton City Centre, Toronto’s Billy Bishop and Buttonville airport are all good examples. The purpose of the Campbell River Airport Advisory Committee is to provide policy advice and recommendations to Council, on various issues related to the airport including long range planning, economic development, marketing, air transportation planning, and environmental and sustainability issues. The following matters are within the mandate of the Committee to investigate and make recommendations to Council on the following: Airport zoned lands for aerospace or any other aviation related or complimentary commercial venture that is consistent with the Airport Master Plan; Economic development and marketing for the airport; Air transportation service for Campbell River and region; Any other matter referred by Council.

  • Vancouver Island and Sunshine Coast Region Air Transportation Outlook I
    Vancouver Island and Sunshine Coast Region Air Transportation Outlook Final Report strategic transportation & tourism solutions Prepared by InterVISTAS Consulting Inc. June 17, 2008 June 17, 2008 Confidential Vancouver Island and Sunshine Coast Region Air Transportation Outlook i Executive Summary InterVISTAS Consulting Inc. was retained by the Vancouver Island Economic Developers Association (VIEDA) to develop a Vancouver Island and Sunshine Coast Region Air Transportation Outlook. Most airports in Canada and all but one of the airports in the study area are managed by independent authorities or by municipal councils of the communities they serve. These airports are free to participate in any market sector in which they see opportunity: as defined and sanctioned by their Board’s mission, vision and strategic plan for their community’s airport. Key factors that govern and shape decisions around market participation are: ■ Market opportunities in terms of underserved regions, low levels of service and the airport’s competitive positioning in that sector based on market analysis ■ The operational capability of the airport to participate in target markets ■ A business case that supports the investment to enter target markets The InterVISTAS’ approach and methodology for this study was shaped by these considerations. The report assesses levels of service by defined regions and market sectors, identifies current levels of service, assesses airports’ capabilities in the region and recommends development subject to detailed business case analysis. Section 2 of the report presents an overview of the socio-economic and demographic characteristics of the seven major Regional Districts contained in the study area. The data shows significant forecast population growth for the Central Island Regional Districts of Nanaimo, Comox/Strathacona and the Cowichan Valley as well as the Sunshine Coast Regional District (Gibsons/Sechelt).
