About Deer Lake Airport
Overview
Deer Lake Airport (CYDF) serves the Newfoundland and Labrador region, situated at 72 feet above mean sea level near the town of Deer Lake. The airport features a single runway 07/25 measuring 8,005 feet in length, constructed with asphalt, capable of supporting medium airport operations in this northeastern Canadian location.
Flying Conditions
Weather conditions demonstrate significant variability, with visual flight rules (VFR) prevailing 54.8% of the time and marginal VFR conditions occurring 36.3% of observations. Pilots should anticipate southwest winds averaging 8.6 knots, with temperatures ranging from -16°C to 26°C and an average visibility of 11.8 statute miles, though visibility can drop below 3 miles 6.8% of the time.
Notable Features
The airport's geographic positioning in Newfoundland presents unique meteorological challenges, with potential for rapid weather changes typical of coastal environments. Calm wind conditions occur 7.4% of the time, while maximum recorded wind speeds reach 29 knots, suggesting potential for occasional challenging crosswind landing conditions.
Approach Considerations
Runway 07/25 demonstrates favorable wind alignment, with wind conditions supporting 100% of runway operations. Pilots can expect an average crosswind of 3.5 knots, with September, October, and January offering the most consistently favorable VFR flying conditions based on historical meteorological data.
