Granby Sports Park Ultralightport

Cessation of informal use. This was not an officially recognized airport but rather a large, open field within a public park likely used by local ultralight pilots. The 'closure' would have been due to the cessation of this activity, possibly due to increased development of the sports park, liability concerns for the town of Granby, or a lack of local pilots using the site. It was not closed for economic, military, or accident-related reasons in the traditional sense.

The site is currently the Granby Sports Park and Flying Heels Arena. The specific coordinates point to the grounds of this multi-use recreational facility, which includes baseball diamonds, open fields, and a large rodeo and equestrian arena. The land is actively used for community sports, concerts, and equestrian events. There are no remaining signs or infrastructure of any aviation activity.

The historical significance is minimal and strictly local. The 'ultralightport' was never an officially sanctioned airport and does not appear in historical FAA records. Its identifier, US-11199, is a non-official code used by third-party databases to catalog locations not recognized by government bodies. When active, it would have handled a very small number of private, recreational flights by ultralight or STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) aircraft. Operations were informal, consisting of takeoffs and landings from a grassy, unprepared field within the park.

None. The land is fully developed and utilized as a public sports and events complex. Re-establishing aviation operations, even for ultralights, would be incompatible with the site's current use and would present significant safety and liability issues. There are no known plans or prospects for reopening it as an airfield. Pilots in the region use the nearby Granby/Grand County Airport (KGNB).
