DOCUMENTATIONWinnipeg Richardson International Airport (CYWG)
Winnipeg operates around the clock as a freighter hub, with cargo aprons and service roads that see heavy vehicle traffic at night and through the winter. The Winnipeg program focuses on AVOP pre-certification for airside drivers and cargo operators: route familiarization on the cargo and terminal aprons, aircraft right of way around active stands, and night and winter driving on the airport's own layout.
