Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 26, 2025
Closure Date

Analysis of historical satellite imagery indicates the airport was likely abandoned between 2010 and 2015. The airstrip was clearly maintained and visible in imagery from 2006, but by 2015 it had become significantly overgrown and indistinguishable from the surrounding fields.

Reason for Closure

The airport was a small, private airstrip. The closure was almost certainly due to abandonment by its private owner. This typically occurs when the property is sold, the owner ceases flying activities due to age or financial reasons, or upon the owner's death. There is no indication that it was closed for military, commercial, or safety reasons.

Current Status

The site is currently private property consisting of an overgrown field and woodland. The former runway is no longer maintained or used for any aviation purposes and is being reclaimed by nature. From the ground, it is likely unrecognizable as a former airstrip.

Historical Significance

Tounshendeaux Airport had no major historical significance. It was a private, unpaved grass runway used for recreational general aviation, likely by a single owner for personal light aircraft. It did not support commercial, cargo, or military operations. The ICAO identifier 'US-10820' is a non-official code assigned by third-party data aggregators for cataloging purposes, as the airstrip likely never had an official FAA Location Identifier.

Reopening Prospects

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the airport. Any such initiative would be entirely dependent on the current landowner's desire and financial ability to clear the land and re-establish the airstrip for private use. Given its long period of disuse, a reopening is highly improbable.
