Code 3C certified aerodrome owned by the City of Dryden and operated by The Loomex Group, sited on the Trans-Canada Highway roughly midway between Winnipeg and Thunder Bay, and used for medevac, charter, forestry/mining-support and general aviation traffic. Bearskin Airlines (a Perimeter Aviation company) discontinued its scheduled Thunder Bay-Sioux Lookout-Winnipeg passenger service in May 2024 for low demand and, as of mid-2026, no carrier had resumed scheduled flights, though a 2025-26 feasibility study supports restoring service and nearby Kenora and Fort Frances have already regained scheduled North Star Air flights to Thunder Bay.

Bearskin Airlines (self-handling)
Bearskin Airlines (Perimeter Aviation) historically flew Kenora-Dryden-Thunder Bay but discontinued Dryden, Kenora and Fort Frances service in May 2024 citing low post-COVID demand. Third-party flight-schedule aggregators list it as currently serving YHD again via Kenora and Thunder Bay, but this is not corroborated by Perimeter Aviation's own official route/schedule page, which does not list Dryden among current destinations - so current operation, and with it any self-handling of ground ops, is unconfirmed. Dryden Regional Airport states it has no dedicated third-party ground handling service, consistent with a self-handling model if/when the carrier operates the route. Not a service offered to third parties.
