Maybe they'll extend that runway and let jets in! How awesome would that be to see the new Bombardier C-Series operating out of Billy Bishop!

15! Best approach ever. Mini Kai Tak approach. Fly directly at a condo building... Hard right and drop it like its hot!

Non existent anymore in the summer. But some times in the winter if the NOTAM lapses, and the controller allows it... Still a blast. Haven't done it in 3 years though.

Is there ever a time when 15 isn't NOTAM'd "landing unauthorized"?

Not for fixed wing. With that new hotel at the CNE I wouldn't be surprised if they got rid of 33 departures all together as well.

In the past three-ish years? Not sure. But prior to that, yes.

That will be depressing as @#$!. 33 is awesome! Rumors have it they will eventually make it a 1 runway airport. Rumors that as sad as it maybe, I can easily see coming true.
