About Resolute Bay Airport
Overview
Resolute Bay Airport serves the remote northern Canadian community of Resolute in Nunavut, located at 74.716904, -94.969398. As a medium airport situated at 215 feet MSL, it provides critical transportation infrastructure in the high Arctic region, supporting essential regional and scientific operations.
Flying Conditions
Pilots should anticipate challenging Arctic weather conditions with significant variability. Statistical data shows flight rules are predominantly VFR (53.3%), but MVFR, IFR, and LIFR conditions are frequent, totaling 46.7% of observations. The average temperature of -14.6°C ranges extensively from -42°C to 3°C, with consistent northwest winds averaging 14.5 knots.
Notable Features
The airport's single runway (17T/35T) is 6500 feet long with gravel surface (GVL), designed to handle challenging Arctic operational requirements. Wind patterns are predominantly northwest at 315°, with occasional calm periods (2.1% of observations) and potential extreme wind events reaching up to 45 knots.
Approach Considerations
Runway 17T/35T demonstrates favorable wind alignment, with 100% wind compatibility and an average crosswind of 9.2 knots. Visibility averages 16 statute miles, though pilots should be prepared for reduced visibility scenarios, with 4.4% of observations showing conditions below 3SM and 5.2% experiencing fog conditions.
