About Winnipeg / St. Andrews Airport

Overview

Winnipeg / St. Andrews Airport (CYAV) is a medium-sized airport located near Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. Situated at an elevation of 760 feet MSL, the airport serves the regional aviation needs of the Winnipeg metropolitan area and surrounding communities. Its strategic location provides important aviation infrastructure for general aviation, potentially local commercial, and potentially training operations.

Flying Conditions

The airport's three asphalt runways suggest adaptability to various wind conditions. With runways oriented at 04/22 (2850ft), 13/31 (3000ft), and 18/36 (3000ft), pilots have multiple options for approach and departure depending on wind direction. The moderate elevation and multiple runway configurations indicate potential for consistent operational flexibility across different seasonal weather patterns.

Notable Features

The airport's geographical coordinates (50.056400, -97.032501) place it in the relatively flat terrain characteristic of the Manitoba prairie region. The presence of three runways of similar length suggests the airport is designed to accommodate a variety of aircraft types and operational requirements. Its proximity to Winnipeg indicates potential interactions with complex regional airspace structures.

Approach Considerations

Pilots should be prepared to utilize different runways based on wind conditions, with the three available runways providing multiple approach options. The airport's runway lengths ranging from 2850 to 3000 feet suggest suitability for smaller to medium-sized aircraft. Standard considerations for prairie airport approaches, including potential wind variability and terrain characteristics, should be factored into flight planning.
