The Native Village of Kwinhagak (NVK) and the Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities (DOT&PF) worked together to update the Airport Layout Plan (ALP) for Quinhagak Airport (AQH). The project was completed in December 2022.
An ALP serves as a critical planning tool that documents existing airport facilities and planned future development at the airport. The updated ALP documented changes in airport conditions since 1997 with a depiction of existing facilities and future planned development.
The Quinhagak Airport is a general aviation (GA) airport located approximately 420 miles west of Anchorage and approximately 72 miles south of Bethel. The airport is owned and operated by NVK. Quinhagak has no other year-round transportation and relies on AQH for passenger, mail, and cargo service. The nearest communities are Eek and Goodnews, both located approximately 40 miles from Quinhagak, and are only accessible by land during winter months.
