## Description

Cottam is a small airstrip in Essex County, south-western Ontario, in the greenhouse and vegetable belt near Lake Erie, with no IATA or ICAO code and no scheduled traffic. It serves general aviation and agricultural flying; there is no cargo handling, customs service or handling agent, and no freight relevance. Regional air cargo moves through Windsor (YQG) about 30 kilometres west, Detroit Metropolitan (DTW) across the border, and Toronto Pearson (YYZ) as Canada's principal gateway, while greenhouse exports to the United States travel almost entirely by truck through the Windsor border crossings.
