St. John's International Airport Wrong airport information (name, codes, frequencies, runways, etc)

Good day. Every single airport in Canada, uses MAGNETIC not TRUE headings, you are incorrectly reporting every single runway at every single airport in Canada. I have copies of NAV Canada's publications of the runway at CYYT, I can forward them when I receive the response email.

Runway 10/28 for example at my airport CYYT (102°/282° MAG as per the legal published areodrome charts) is being shown as 086°/266° TRUE. I use to use the METAR/TAF decoder website/app that is using your information to help me see what way the winds were blowing across the runway at the start of my shift so I could get a heads up to plan how I was plowing the runway with the winds. But due to the incorrect reporting of the runway, the winds will show it straight down the runway, when we have a cross wind for example.

Plan to reject this report. Impractical to add magnetic headings which are fleeting. Runway indicators are changed when official changes are made.

Belleville Aerodrome Other

Not a Belleville problem, but the latest Google Chrome reports this site as dangerous and at risk for malicious hackers to exploit users because it is on "http" and not "https" which I believe is encrypted.

Stirling Private Aerodrome Duplicate airport

Airport is a duplicate of CPJ5 Stirling, which is a registered aerodrome and has been in the OurAirports database since at least 2013.

open 2025-04-19 22:45:07 2025-04-21 00:39:10

rejected 2023-05-22 02:15:43 2023-06-04 07:11:45

That's very sad about the fire. There is no NOTAM listing the landing surface as closed, but it is listed as restricted due to the fire. Presumably it is still available to frontline responders if needed?

Calgary/Okotoks (GG Ranch) Heliport Other

Slightly odd name choice in use of \ not / in the name. Care to ask the airport if they'd like to switch the angle of their slash?

Why? Well somewhat comically, when used in C/C++ software, the compiler baulks at \O being an invalid 'escape sequence'.

It's easily fixed in software, by changing the \ to a \\ to make the slash 'literal'.

But just thought I'd mention, as this airport is the only one worldwide that has \ not /
