Ylivieska Airfield (IATA: YLI[2], ICAO: EFYL) is an aerodrome located in Vähäkangas, Ylivieska, Finland, about 10 kilometres (6 mi) east-southeast of Ylivieska town centre.[1]
The airfield was opened in 1982, and it replaced the old airfield in Niemenkylä.[3] The airport had commercial service until 1996, and the runway was ILS equipped prior to the aerodrome's relegation to uncontrolled status in late 2003.[4]
