Wesinger Ranch Airport

The specific reason for closure is not officially documented. As a private ranch airstrip, it was most likely abandoned due to economic or practical reasons. This typically happens when the ranch owner who used the strip no longer owns an aircraft, sells the property, or finds the airstrip is no longer necessary for their operations. There is no evidence of closure due to an accident or military conversion.

The site has reverted to its original use as private ranch land, likely for cattle grazing or other agricultural purposes. The faint outline of the former runway is still visible in satellite and aerial imagery, but it is overgrown and crisscrossed by dirt tracks. There are no remaining airport facilities such as hangars or markings.

Wesinger Ranch Airport held no major national or regional significance; its importance was purely local and private. It served as a private airstrip for the Wesinger Ranch. Operations would have consisted of light general aviation aircraft, used for personal transportation for the ranch owners, business purposes related to ranching, and potentially agricultural activities like cattle spotting or crop dusting. The airfield consisted of a single, unpaved north-south runway, approximately 2,600 feet in length.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the airport. The land is privately owned, and the airfield has been defunct for over three decades. Re-establishing it as a functional airport would require significant investment and a renewed need from the current landowners, making its reopening highly improbable.
