## Description

On the Quebec bank of the Ottawa River in Gatineau, the Ottawa / Gatineau Airport (YND) operates as a general- and business-aviation field for the national capital region. Flight training, private and charter flying and maintenance shops define its activity, with no scheduled passenger or cargo flights. Lacking a cargo terminal, the area's air freight runs through Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier (YOW), while pure freighters often use Montreal Mirabel (YMX). For forwarders, YND serves mainly as a business-aviation base and a road feeder. Its position on Highway 50 close to the capital keeps downtown connections short.
