Lake Washington Airport

The official reason for closure is not publicly documented. As a small, private ultralight field, the closure was almost certainly due to a personal decision by the landowner. Common reasons for such closures include the owner's retirement from flying, sale of the property, or the owner's death. The closure was not related to military conversion, a major accident, or broad economic factors.

The airport is permanently closed and defunct. The site is now private agricultural land. The former turf runway is completely overgrown and is blending back into the surrounding farmland. While the faint outline of the runway is still visible in satellite views, the site is no longer functional or recognizable as an airfield from the ground.

Lake Washington Airport was a small, privately owned turf airstrip. Its significance was entirely local, serving as a base for recreational aviation for its owner and possibly other local pilots. It featured a single north-south turf runway (18/36) approximately 2,600 feet long. Operations were limited to ultralight aircraft and small general aviation planes. It had no commercial, public, or military role. Its name is derived from its proximity to Lake Washington, a large oxbow lake in Mississippi.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the airport. Given that the land has reverted to agricultural use and is privately owned, any prospect of reopening is considered extremely low to non-existent.
