About Dolbeau-Saint-Felicien Airport

Overview

Dolbeau-Saint-Felicien Airport serves the regional transportation needs in Quebec's Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean area. Located at coordinates 48.778500, -72.375000, this medium-sized airport provides critical aviation infrastructure for the surrounding municipalities. The airport sits at an elevation of 372 feet above mean sea level, positioning it in a moderately elevated terrain region.

Flying Conditions

The airport's latitude and elevation suggest variable seasonal weather conditions typical of northeastern Quebec. Pilots should anticipate potential wind shifts and temperature variations that could impact aircraft performance, especially during transition seasons. The single runway (11/29) measuring 4,971 feet with an asphalt surface provides adequate length for most medium-sized aircraft operations.

Notable Features

Dolbeau-Saint-Felicien Airport's single runway configuration requires precise navigation and wind awareness during approach and departure. The airport's geographical location in the Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region means surrounding terrain may influence local wind patterns and create potential mechanical turbulence. Pilots should maintain heightened situational awareness regarding terrain and potential meteorological variations.

Approach Considerations

Runway 11/29 offers a straightforward approach environment with its 4,971-foot asphalt surface. Prevailing wind conditions will likely determine the preferred runway direction, with pilots expected to conduct standard runway selection protocols. Given the airport's modest elevation and regional setting, standard instrument approach procedures should be carefully reviewed prior to arrival.
