Calgary/Okotoks Airranch Airport (TC LID: CFX2) is located 15 nautical miles (28 km; 17 mi) south of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. The airport is home to Access Helicopters, Foothills Helicopter Training Academy, and Calgary-Okotoks Flying School, as well as many privately owned aircraft.
The aerodrome is located in the heart of a residential community, with many houses having access to the airport's taxiway. Due to the proximity to the community the aerodrome is a noise sensitive area, and is accessible only to locally based aircraft.
Due to ongoing financial issues, the airport is scheduled to close to fixed-wing traffic in the fall of 2021.[2]
