Kathy's Patch Airport

The specific reason for closure is not publicly documented. As a small, private-use airstrip, the closure was likely due to personal reasons of the owner, such as the sale of the property, cessation of flying activities due to age or health, or the high cost and effort of maintenance. There is no evidence of military conversion, major accidents, or regulatory action leading to its closure.

The site is private property and is no longer an active airfield. The land where the runway was located has been reclaimed for agricultural or pastoral use. The faint outline of the former north-south runway is still visible in satellite views, but it is completely overgrown and unusable by aircraft.

The airport holds no major historical significance. It was a private, unpaved grass airstrip located on residential/agricultural land. Its operations were limited to the personal, recreational use of the owner and likely their guests. The active runway was approximately 1,800 feet long, suitable for small, single-engine aircraft like a Cessna or Piper Cub.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the airport. Re-establishing the airstrip would be entirely at the discretion and expense of the current landowner and would require significant groundwork to make the runway operational again. Given its private nature and current state, reopening is highly unlikely.
