Where did you hear the news about YPK?

This has been confirmed to be *false* via direct communication with YPK.

Edited to add:
False for YNJ
False for YXX (up to 6000lbs free)

still waiting to hear from ZBB

Latest update:

https://www.bcaviation.ca/bcga-news/...ing-fees-dec21

TL;dr: The fee will apply to any aircraft that doesn't buy at least 15L of gas.

No word on how it will be monitored, billed, or collected. Much easier solution: Land at YPK, YNJ, or YXX instead, who are happy to have your business, have eating establishments on-field, won't charge you a landing fee, and are only a few minutes away.

Boundry Bay has put fee on hold as of tonight
