Beebe Airport

While official records are unavailable for this small, private airfield, the most probable reason for closure was a private owner's decision. This is common for farm strips and can be due to the owner ceasing aviation activities, selling the aircraft, the owner's retirement or death, or the sale of the property. There is no evidence to suggest closure was due to military conversion, a specific accident, or broader economic factors beyond the personal cost of maintaining a private airfield.

The site of the former airport has been completely reclaimed for agricultural purposes. The land where the runways were located is now a cultivated farm field, typically used for growing crops like corn or soybeans. While faint outlines of the former runways may occasionally be visible from the air depending on crop patterns and conditions, there are no remaining aviation facilities like hangars or markings. On the ground, the site is indistinguishable from the surrounding farmland.

Beebe Airport was a small, private-use airfield, likely named after the family that owned the land. It consisted of two grass runways in an 'L' configuration. Its significance was primarily for the personal and recreational use of its owner(s), typical of the many private farm strips found in rural America. It did not handle commercial, charter, or significant general aviation traffic and was likely never depicted on public aeronautical charts or registered with an FAA identifier. Its operation was limited to light, single-engine aircraft suitable for landing on unpaved surfaces.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Beebe Airport. The land is privately owned and actively farmed. Re-establishing an airfield would require the current landowner to cease agricultural operations and make a significant investment to restore the runways, a scenario which is considered extremely unlikely.
