Port Hope Simpson Airport guide

Port Hope Simpson Airport (ICAO CCP4) is a small gravel airstrip serving the town of Port Hope Simpson on the southeastern coast of Labrador. The town had 403 residents at the 2021 census. It was named in 1944 as a company town after John Hope Simpson, and cod fishing was its mainstay until the fishery closed in 1992.

The single runway, 12/30, is gravel and measures about 2,500 feet by 75 feet (762 m by 23 m). Both ends have runway identification lights and an abbreviated visual approach slope indicator. The field sits 339 feet above sea level. The Government of Newfoundland and Labrador operates the strip, and the province charges a $40 landing and terminal building fee to commercial aircraft at its Labrador airstrips.

The town also sits on Route 510, the Trans-Labrador Highway. The short gravel runway limits the airstrip to small aircraft.
