Dymond Airport (CYJT), on Newfoundland's west coast at Stephenville, is a certified aerodrome built around a single very long main runway paired with a shorter crosswind strip, making it a distinctive stop for VFR pilots exploring the island. It offers an ILS approach on one runway direction and mandatory-frequency radio procedures, and is currently operated as a privately run facility.
Dymond Airport, identified as CYJT, serves the town of Stephenville in Newfoundland and Labrador. Its most striking feature for a visiting pilot is the near two-mile main runway, a scale of infrastructure unusual for a field of its size, complemented by a much shorter secondary strip. The aerodrome is currently privately operated, and its long runway and ILS approach make it a notable and slightly unusual destination for simulator pilots flying the Newfoundland coast.
The field lies on the west coast of the island of Newfoundland at Stephenville. Communications are handled through Gander Center on 132.3 MHz, placing the aerodrome within the area served by Gander air traffic services, with a remote communications outlet to Halifax Radio available on 126.7 MHz.
Dymond Airport has two physical runways. The main runway, 09/27, is 9,998 feet long with a hard surface and runway lighting; an ILS is provided for runway 27. The secondary runway, 02/20, is 3,955 feet long, also hard-surfaced and lit. Field elevation is 46 feet.
Traffic in the vicinity should monitor the mandatory frequency (MF) of 122.1 MHz. Gander Center can be reached on 132.3 MHz, and a remote communications outlet to Halifax Radio is available on 126.7 MHz. An ILS serves runway 27 for instrument approaches.
As an MF aerodrome, pilots operating in the vicinity are expected to establish two-way communication on 122.1 MHz and make position reports appropriate to a mandatory-frequency environment before joining and while operating in the circuit.
Dymond Airport is listed as a certified aerodrome operating on a continuous (H24) basis, with an ILS approach available for runway 27. Prior permission may be required for visiting aircraft; pilots should confirm current operating arrangements before flight.
