Regional Aviation Context

Canada's general aviation operates under Transport Canada regulations. Cross-border operations with the U.S. are common and streamlined through CANPASS and eAPIS. Winter operations and vast distances are defining characteristics.

Operational Considerations

At 3,055 feet MSL, One Hundred Mile House Airport operates at moderate elevation. Standard-day density altitude matches field elevation, but summer temperatures can push it above 4,855 feet. The 1,900-foot runway delivers approximately 1,726 feet of sea-level equivalent performance after altitude correction. Pilots transitioning from sea-level airports should plan for longer ground rolls and reduced initial climb performance at One Hundred Mile House Airport.

Four distinct seasons define operations at One Hundred Mile House Airport. Winter brings icing potential, snow-covered surfaces, and reduced daylight hours. De-icing capability is valuable from November through March. Spring and fall transitions produce the most variable weather — warm fronts, cold fronts, and rapid ceiling changes. Summer typically delivers the best VFR conditions but introduces convective risk during afternoon heating. Preflight weather assessment should include both surface observations and area forecasts at this latitude.
