Hangar Fly Ultralight Fly Club Ultralightport

Urban development and land redevelopment. The ultralightport was located in a rapidly growing suburban area of Indianapolis (Lawrence). The increasing value of the land for commercial and industrial purposes made its continued operation as a small, private airfield economically unviable. The site was sold and redeveloped to accommodate new businesses.

The site has been completely redeveloped and is unrecognizable as a former airfield. The land where the runway and hangar once stood is now occupied by a commercial and light industrial park. Buildings housing various businesses, including car dealerships and service centers, now cover the entire property. There is no remaining trace of any aviation infrastructure.

Hangar Fly Ultralight Fly Club Ultralightport was a private airfield dedicated to recreational flying of ultralight aircraft. It served as a local hub for the ultralight aviation community on the northeast side of Indianapolis. The facility consisted of a single, unpaved north/south turf runway (approximately 1,500 feet long) and at least one hangar. Its operations were governed by FAA Part 103 rules, catering to single-seat, low-speed, lightweight aircraft. The airport's significance was not national, but it was an important local asset for enthusiasts, providing a dedicated and safe space for this specific type of aviation away from the heavier traffic of larger airports like Indianapolis International (IND) or the nearby Indianapolis Metropolitan Airport (UMP).

Non-existent. The land has been fully and permanently repurposed for commercial use. The cost and logistical challenges of acquiring the multiple developed commercial properties, demolishing the existing structures, and re-establishing an airfield in this heavily developed urban area make reopening an impossibility.
