As per request.....
Killaloe/Bonnechere Airport (IATA: YXI, ICAO: CYXI), near Killaloe, Ontario, Canada, was built by the Canadian Department of Transportation (later Transport Canada) in 1952 as a Cold War airstrip for interceptors. The airport officially ceased operations in 1988, but trespassing is frequent: pilots continue to land on the old runway, and local residents frequently use it for drag racing, despite the badly decayed surface.
In 2004, because of legal liability concerns, Transport Canada planned to cut ditches across the runway to make it unusable, but the plan was suspended while negotiations on possible future use continued.
The associated VOR/DME, YXI, was decommissioned in 2021 by Nav Canada.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
just redid the runway, added a hanger and dirtied down the approns. Added numbers at end of runway for reference only.
If you want middle maker strips or parking spots let me know and I will add them later.
Hope you enjoy

Hey thanks for this! Great job; neat little airstrip for those familiar with the area as a base jump to Algonquin Provincial Park and region. Cheers and great work!
