Ottawa / Rockcliffe Airport

Ottawa / Rockcliffe Airport (CYRO) is a small general aviation airport located on the south bank of the Ottawa River in the Rockcliffe Park area of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It serves primarily private pilots, flight training operations, and recreational aviation, and is not a commercial passenger airport. The airport is home to the Canada Aviation and Space Museum, one of the country's premier aviation heritage institutions, which occupies a large hangar complex on the grounds. This association gives the airport significant cultural and historical importance beyond its operational role. Rockcliffe has a storied past, having served as a Royal Canadian Air Force station and been involved in early Canadian aviation history. Today it operates as a federally owned airport managed under Transport Canada's jurisdiction, catering to the general aviation community in the National Capital Region.
