Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 26, 2025
Closure Date

Between 1990 and 1998. The airport was last depicted on the 1990 Wichita Sectional Chart and was officially listed as 'closed indefinitely' in the 1998 FAA Airport/Facility Directory.

Reason for Closure

The specific reason is not officially documented. For a small, private airfield of this nature, closure is typically due to economic factors, the owner no longer having a need for it, the owner's passing, or the land being sold and repurposed, most commonly for agriculture.

Current Status

The airport is permanently closed and no longer exists as an aviation facility. The land has been fully converted to agricultural use. Current satellite imagery of the coordinates shows the faint, ghostly outline of the former runway, but the area is now part of a larger, actively cultivated farm field. All airport-related structures, such as hangars or markings, have been removed.

Historical Significance

Rollers Airport (formerly FAA identifier: 8OK3) was a small, private-use airfield. It was established sometime between 1968 and 1971. The airport consisted of a single unpaved north/south runway with a length of approximately 2,600 feet. Its operations were limited to general aviation, likely serving the personal and agricultural needs of the owner and local community. It did not handle commercial or significant military traffic and its historical importance is confined to local private aviation history.

Reopening Prospects

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Rollers Airport. Given that the land has been fully integrated into agricultural operations for several decades, the likelihood of it ever being restored as an airport is virtually zero.
