Red Deer Regional Airport, Red Deer
The Red Deer Regional Airport was built during World War II to train Allied forces. The airport was a former Canadian Air Force pilot training base for NATO pilots until 1965. The Military built the training airfield at this site because of the predominantly good flying weather and the un-congested airspace. Both factors are still valid today. The Red Deer area boasts good flying weather over 95% of the year. The Province extended the main runway in 1980 bringing it up to "737" standards. |
