Gatineau-Ottawa Executive Airport (French: Aéroport exécutif Gatineau-Ottawa) (IATA: YND, ICAO: CYND) is located 1 nautical mile (1.9 km; 1.2 mi) northeast of Gatineau, Quebec, Canada. It has a single, 6,000 ft × 150 ft (1,829 m × 46 m) Asphalt runway oriented east-west.

The airport is equipped with Canada Customs facilities for aircraft coming from outside Canada, a car rental counter and a restaurant. Various past attempts to provide regularly scheduled flights from Gatineau's airport had been unsuccessful. Most residents of Gatineau use the nearby Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport, or travel to Montréal-Pierre Elliott Trudeau International Airport in Montreal.

The airport was inaugurated in 1978 and transferred to the City of Gatineau in 1991.

The airport houses the Vintage Wings of Canada, a nationwide non-for-profit organization that educates youth by use of vintage aircraft.
