Trenton/Mountain View Airport, (TC LID: CPZ3), is located 5.2 NM (9.6 km; 6.0 mi) southeast of Mountain View, Ontario, Canada.

The airport serves as an Royal Canadian Air Cadets flying centre from May until October and as a flight training centre from June until the end of August each summer. Stored at the airport are retired Canadian Forces aircraft, including the Canadair CL-41 Tutor and Canadair T-33 (T-33 Shooting Star), but others such as Canadair CF-5s and OH-58s also reside here but in smaller numbers.

A new gravel runway was constructed in 2006 to train Canadian Forces C130 Hercules aircraft crew in landing on unprepared landing strips. The Canadian Forces have also established a drop zone nearby.
