Coordinate error

The following coordinate fixes are needed for George Lake aerodrome: The actual coordinates are: 65°55'18.0"N 107°27'37.7"W 65.921664, -107.460462 It was probably just typo in longitude - 102 degrees instead of 107 degrees.

The second: the runway is not ICE, it is gravel one, on the ground. The temporary ice runways are made every year in winter/sping time (Feb-May) on the lake nearby.

I worked there as a land surveyor so I know for sure. 94.245.135.105 (talk) 01:25, 26 September 2015 (UTC) —{{subst:Andrei Douglas}}Reply

Coordinate correction

Done; thanks for pointing out the error. With regard to the gravel runway, I'm not able to find a source for that information at the moment, but I'll leave a message for the creator of the article, who works at an airport in Nunavut and should have access to good sources.

According to the current Canada Flight Supplement (valid until 15 October) there is nothing but an ice runway. I checked the NOTAM and there was nothing listed. They may have laid a gravel strip out but didn't get it registered. CambridgeBayWeather (mobile) (talk) 11:24, 26 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
