Armstrong Airport — Armstrong, Canada

Armstrong Airport (YYW) serves the small community of Armstrong in remote northwestern Ontario, situated along the Canadian National Railway line north of Lake Nipigon. The airport primarily supports general aviation, forestry operations, and occasional charter flights, given the settlement's tiny population and limited road connections. Armstrong's remote boreal forest location makes YYW an important refueling and staging point for aircraft engaged in forest fire detection and suppression across a vast, sparsely inhabited stretch of northern Ontario. The airport's modest infrastructure reflects the community's small scale, yet it remains a vital access point for this isolated wilderness outpost.
