About Digby / Annapolis Regional Airport

Overview

Digby / Annapolis Regional Airport serves the Annapolis County region in Nova Scotia, Canada. Located at 44.545845, -65.785425, this medium-sized airport provides essential aviation infrastructure for the local area at an elevation of 499 feet above mean sea level.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation of 499 ft MSL suggests a moderate terrain environment typical of coastal Nova Scotia. Pilots should anticipate maritime weather influences, which can produce variable wind conditions and potential rapid meteorological changes characteristic of the Atlantic Canadian region.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (06/24) with an asphalt surface measuring 3,950 feet in length. Its geographic position in Digby suggests potential interactions with coastal terrain and marine atmospheric conditions that could impact flight operations.

Approach Considerations

Runway 06/24's substantial 3,950-foot length provides adequate operational flexibility for most medium-sized aircraft. Pilots should analyze prevailing wind directions when selecting runway orientation, with particular attention to potential crosswind components given the airport's coastal location.
