Denny Island Airport (CYJQ) is a small registered aerodrome on Denny Island in British Columbia's remote Central Coast region, serving the nearby community of Bella Bella. It has a single hard-surfaced runway and no scheduled airline service, making it primarily a general aviation and charter field for this isolated coastal area.

Overview

Denny Island Airport is a small registered aerodrome situated on Denny Island, British Columbia, in the Central Coast region of the province. It serves the community of Bella Bella, which lies nearby, and has no scheduled airline service, so traffic is limited to general aviation, charter and government flights supporting this remote coastal community.

The airfield lies on Denny Island in British Columbia's Central Coast, at coordinates 52.1397 N, 128.064 W, at an elevation of 161 feet. It is a remote, uncontrolled aerodrome typical of the northern British Columbia coast, with the community of Bella Bella situated close by.

Runways

Denny Island Airport has a single physical runway, 11/29, with a hard surface measuring 2934 feet in length. No lighting or instrument landing system is recorded for the field.

Radio & Navigation

No communications frequency is published for Denny Island Airport, and no navaids or instrument approach procedures are recorded for the field.

History

The airport function was established by a bylaw adopted in 1992 by the Central Coast Regional District Board, after the local community requested that an existing runway become a function of the district. The land is secured under a licence of occupation granted by the Province of British Columbia, and the establishing bylaw was updated in 2017. The airport remains a registered aerodrome without scheduled airline service to the community.

The Airfield Today

The airfield is overseen by the volunteer Denny Island Airport Commission, which manages its maintenance and operations on behalf of the Central Coast Regional District. It continues to operate as a registered aerodrome without scheduled airline service, functioning as a general aviation link for the Denny Island and Bella Bella area.
