Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 26, 2025
Closure Date

Not Applicable - This heliport is not closed. The 'closed' status associated with the identifier US-10395 appears to be a data error in non-official aviation databases. The heliport at this location is active and operational under the official FAA Location Identifier (LID) 0MD1.

Reason for Closure

Not Applicable. The heliport was never closed. The confusion likely arises from a duplicate or erroneous database entry that incorrectly lists the facility as closed. The active heliport, 0MD1, has been in continuous operation for many years.

Current Status

The site is an active, private-use rooftop heliport located atop the main hospital building. Its official FAA identifier is 0MD1. It is a 60 x 60 ft concrete helipad equipped for day and night operations. It is used exclusively for medical emergency flights to and from Sinai Hospital, a key component of the LifeBridge Health system.

Historical Significance

The Sinai Hospital of Baltimore Heliport (0MD1) is a critical piece of infrastructure for the region's emergency medical system. As Sinai Hospital is a Level II Trauma Center and a major stroke and cardiac center, the heliport has been essential for decades in receiving critically injured or ill patients via medical helicopter. It primarily handles medevac operations, frequently used by the Maryland State Police Aviation Command ('Trooper' helicopters) and other air ambulance services to rapidly transport patients from accident scenes or transfer them from other medical facilities, significantly reducing travel time and improving patient outcomes.

Reopening Prospects

Not Applicable, as the heliport is currently open and fully operational.
