File Description:
Umiujaq is a small village on the east coast of Hudson Bay, in Quebec, around 140 miles south of Inukjuak and 100 miles north of Kuujjuarapik; the latter is where some 500 inhabitants moved from in 1986 to avoid the effects of a hydroelectric dam project and founded Umiujaq. The airfield is a mile and a half inland and southeast of the village, and the 3,520 feet of gravel runway is aligned 03/21, and these are magnetic bearings as Inukjuak is not in the Northern Domestic Airspace zone. There is no fuel available, unless there is some 100LL in drums. The visiting AI airline is Air Inuit from Montreal.
