This airport is not recognized in any official or historical aviation records and is considered non-existent. The facility at the specified coordinates, the Arizona Proving Ground, was established in the 1950s and has never been a public or private airport; it has been in continuous operation as an automotive test facility.
Not applicable, as the airport is fictitious. The provided ICAO code 'US-11123' is not a valid identifier. The location has always been an automotive proving ground, not an airport that was later closed.
The site is the active and fully operational Stellantis (formerly FCA) Arizona Proving Ground. It is a secure, private facility used for year-round vehicle testing. The feature at the exact coordinates is the 5-mile, high-banked oval test track, surrounded by numerous other tracks, road courses, and testing laboratories.
Sergio Private Airport has no historical significance. However, the actual site, the FCA Arizona Proving Ground, is highly significant in the automotive industry. Originally built by Ford Motor Company and later acquired by Chrysler in 1953, this 3,840-acre facility has been instrumental in the development, durability, and performance testing of countless vehicle models for over 70 years in a demanding desert environment.
Not applicable. Since the site was never an airport, there are no prospects for it to 'reopen' as one. It remains a critical, active asset for Stellantis's global vehicle development programs.
