Buttonville Airport
Began as a grass stripe in 1953, named for settler John Button. The airport became official in 1962.
From 1963, the airport grew to provide facilities to important community services such as police helicopters, medi vacs (medical emergency), and the training space for those highly skilled pilots.
From 2016 onwards, this airport, along with many general aviation airports like it, are beginning to diminish in its services.
Stay awhile, you may catch some small aircraft take flight. Optional activity, snap a pic of an aircraft and post it with your log.
IMPORTANT NOTE: the cache is accessible from the parking lot side (East side) of the fence. There is no need to climb or cross the fence line. For safety be mindful of airport signage and restrictions. Suggest arriving via Renfrew Drive on the East side of the airport.
UPDATE - November 30, 2023: The airport is now closed. Maintenance vehicles are now beginning the deconstruction of the runways. The cache will continue to be maintained at this location as long as it is safe to do so. My plan is to document the closure and lost of this facility to the community and the redevelop of this land.
