Red Sucker Lake Airport guide

Red Sucker Lake Airport (ICAO CYRS) is a small public aerodrome in northeastern Manitoba, beside the Red Sucker Lake First Nation. The community lies about 532 km southeast of Thompson, and the airport is its main link to the rest of the province. It sits at an elevation of about 228 m (747 ft).

The single runway, 09/27, is roughly 1,083 m (3,552 ft) of crushed rock. Published sources differ slightly on its exact length. A Transport Canada grant funded rehabilitation of the runway and replacement of the airfield lighting. The Government of Manitoba, through Northern Airports and Marine Operations, operates the aerodrome, and its staffed hours are 07:00 to 12:00 and 13:00 to 15:15.

Perimeter Aviation and Northway Aviation fly scheduled services to Garden Hill and Winnipeg. Statistics Canada recorded 1,901 aircraft movements here in 2010. There is no public bus, taxi or car rental service at the airport.
