According to a CTV News report from November 2013 the airport had the Transport Canada location identifier of CPL6.[2] However, the aerodrome and code did not appear in the Canada Flight Supplement until April 3, 2014.[1]


Runway


Although the Parkland Airport website has indicated, since 2016, that the runway is 5,217 ft (1,590 m)[6] the Canada Flight Supplement of 20 June 2019 indicates that the runway is still 2,274 ft (693 m). As of 14 July 2019 there is no NOTAM to show that the runway has been extended.[7]


Controversy


In September and October 2013 both Parkland County and neighbouring residents tried to stop the construction of the airport, but a judge ruled construction could continue as airports are under federal jurisdiction.[8] In November 2013 the Enoch Cree Nation made a statement of claim that their rights were being harmed, and they were not consulted.[9][10] On January 15, 2014, members of Enoch Cree Nation sought an injunction against operations at the airport.[11]
