Not applicable. The 'Greene County Parachute Center Airport' at this location is not found in official aviation records and appears to be a data error in non-governmental databases. It was likely never an officially recognized airport, so it does not have a closure date.
Not applicable. The airport as described likely never existed as a formal entity. The name and location data appear to be a conflation of the skydiving center in Greene County, Ohio, with a location in Hardin County, Kentucky. The entry was likely 'closed' in databases once the error was recognized or the data became stale.
The site at coordinates 37.8153, -85.540002 is currently agricultural farmland. Satellite imagery shows no evidence or remnants of an airstrip, hangars, or any other aviation-related infrastructure at this exact location.
This specific airport entity has no known historical significance, as it does not appear to have existed. However, the general area has a history of parachuting. The nearby Elizabethtown Regional Airport (KEKX) was home to 'Skydive Kentucky' for many years. It is possible the coordinates for US-10811 were intended to mark a parachute drop zone associated with operations from KEKX, rather than a separate airport.
There are no prospects for reopening this airport, as it is not a recognized former aviation facility. Any future aviation use of this land would require entirely new development, for which there are no known plans.
