Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 26, 2025
Closure Date

Approximately between 2011 and 2014. Satellite imagery shows a well-maintained grass runway in 2010, but by 2014 the land was being actively cultivated for agriculture.

Reason for Closure

The airport was a private airstrip on agricultural land. While the exact reason is not publicly documented, the closure is consistent with the discontinuation of private use by the owner. The land was subsequently converted back to its primary agricultural purpose. This is a common fate for small, private airfields upon the owner's retirement from flying, sale of the property, or death.

Current Status

The site has been fully reclaimed for agricultural use. The area that once served as the north-south grass runway is now a cultivated farm field, typically planted with crops like corn or soybeans. All airport infrastructure has been removed, although a faint outline of the former runway is sometimes visible in satellite photos depending on the season and crop rotation.

Historical Significance

Mavencamp Airport was a private-use turf airstrip. Its significance was local, serving as a base for the personal, recreational flying activities of its owner. It handled small, single-engine general aviation aircraft. The identifier 'US-10892' is not an official FAA or ICAO code but an internal identifier used by non-governmental aviation database aggregators. The airport never had scheduled commercial or significant military operations.

Reopening Prospects

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the airport. Given that the land has been fully integrated back into active farming operations, the likelihood of it being converted back to an airstrip is extremely low.
