🚨 Training Exercise Notice for Penticton Airport
On Tuesday, May 26 (from 8 am to 9 am ), Penticton Airport will be running a full-scale emergency exercise. This is only a drill, not a real emergency.
This exercise is designed to test the airport’s emergency response plan for managing an aircraft emergency on site. During this time, you may notice an increased presence of emergency responders, including:
• Penticton Fire Department
• BC Ambulance Service
• RCMP
These exercises help keep our community safe and ensure responders are ready when it matters most. Thank you for your understanding.

❗️ Reminder: YYF is a no-fly zone for drones and unmanned air vehicles (UAVs) unless you have authorization through a Transport Canada issued Special Flight Operations Certificate (SFOC).

Are you a new drone owner?

Before you fly, learn the drone safety rules to help keep people and other aircraft you share the skies with safe:

📝Register your drone
🎓Get certified for basic, advanced, or level 1 complex drone operations
📍Check where you can and can’t fly
👁️Respect the privacy rights of others when you fly.

Reminder that drone use is always limited or restricted near airports, advertised events, emergency sites, and wildfires.
