## Description

Built around long-range maritime patrol, CFB Greenwood (YZX) hosts 14 Wing of the Royal Canadian Air Force, flying CP-140 Aurora aircraft and providing search-and-rescue cover over the North Atlantic. It is a military airfield in Nova Scotia's Annapolis Valley, not a commercial cargo facility. Air freight for the region is handled at Halifax Stanfield (YHZ) and its cargo apron. For forwarders, the road run to Halifax, about 150 km away, is the working link. The surrounding valley is best known for its apple orchards and vineyards.
