Conn Aerodrome is located east Conn, Ontario, Canada. Visiting Aircraft information: Mandatory radio frequency is 123.400MHz, call "Conn Traffic" within 5km of the airfield. Aerodrome is visually referenced at the intersection of the 3 rows of high voltage transmission lines where they cross highway 89, Conn Aerodrome is directly north of this intersection. This is a privately owned aerodrome, home to the Toronto Soaring Club, and it operates primarily on weekends but does operate occasionally during the week in the summer months. Power traffic generally uses the circuit opposite to the glider traffic, but call in your intentions regardless. Gliders usually release from tow at 2000'AGL and enter the circuit at 1000'AGL. There is on-going training at the club and gliders will thermal in close proximity to the airfield to the underside of the airspace limit, so special attention is required if transiting the airspace. The club uses a winch on occasion to launch gliders to an altitude of approximately 1100'-1200'AGL. The cable is nearly invisible to passing traffic, but drops quickly to the ground after being released from the glider. Generally winch launches occur in the autumn as the club prefers aerotow for launches. A new runway is under construction at this time and is not serviceable. There is a privately owned grass strip approximately 2km east of the aerodrome, which is used occasionally. Low level helicopter traffic inspects the high voltage wires occasionally. Medivac helicopters routinely transit the area between 1000' and 1200' AGL. The soaring frequency is 123.400MHz and is shared by Toronto Soaring and York Soaring (22km to the south). Monitor carefully to discern calls. York Soaring will be addressed as "Arthur Traffic", Toronto Soaring will be addressed as "Conn Traffic". The club fleet consists of a Citabria towplane, an ASK-13 2-seat training glider, an SZD-50 Puchasz advanced training glider, and an SZD-51 Junior single seat glider. There are many privately owned gliders on the field.
