About Manitoulin East Municipal Airport

Overview

Manitoulin East Municipal Airport serves the Manitoulin Island region in Ontario, Canada, located in the community of Sheguiandah. As a medium-sized airport situated at an elevation of 869 feet above mean sea level, it provides essential aviation infrastructure for the northeastern part of Manitoulin Island. The airport supports regional transportation and serves local aviation needs.

Flying Conditions

Located at 45.842435, -81.857595, the airport experiences typical Great Lakes region weather patterns with potential significant variations between seasons. The airport's relatively high elevation at 869 ft MSL can influence temperature and density altitude considerations for pilots. Winter conditions may present challenges with potential snow and ice affecting runway surface conditions.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (02/20) with an asphalt surface measuring 3,500 feet in length. Its geographic positioning on Manitoulin Island provides unique terrain considerations, with potential wind interactions from surrounding water bodies. The runway orientation suggests potential crosswind scenarios that pilots should anticipate during approach and landing.

Approach Considerations

Runway 02/20's 3,500-foot asphalt surface accommodates a range of aircraft sizes typical for a medium municipal airport. Pilots should carefully assess wind conditions given the runway's single orientation, preparing for potential crosswind landings. Standard approach procedures should be followed, with special attention to local terrain and potential seasonal weather variations.
