Hearst René Fontaine Municipal Airport serves the community of Hearst in Ontario, Canada, located at coordinates 49.714199, -83.686096. As a medium-sized airport situated at an elevation of 827 feet above mean sea level, it provides critical aviation infrastructure for regional transportation and local operational needs.
Flying Conditions
The airport's elevation at 827 ft MSL suggests a moderate terrain environment typical of northern Ontario. Being situated at this latitude, pilots should anticipate potential significant seasonal weather variations that could impact flying conditions, particularly during winter months when northern Ontario experiences challenging meteorological conditions.
