Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 27, 2025
Closure Date

Circa 2014-2015. While an exact date is not public, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) records indicate the heliport's status changed to 'Closed Indefinitely' around this period. Satellite imagery from 2014 onwards shows the helipad markings beginning to fade and the area falling into disuse, corroborating this timeframe.

Reason for Closure

The specific reason is not publicly documented, as it was a private facility. The closure was almost certainly due to internal business decisions by its owner, C.N. Flagg & Co., Inc. Such closures are typically driven by economic or operational factors, such as the sale of the company's corporate helicopter, a change in executive transportation needs, or the high costs of maintenance, insurance, and compliance relative to its frequency of use.

Current Status

The site is the active corporate headquarters of C.N. Flagg & Co., Inc., located at 450 Murdock Avenue, Meriden, CT. The physical remnant of the heliport—a circular concrete pad—is still visible on the lawn of the corporate campus. However, it is no longer maintained for aviation purposes, lacks the required markings (such as the 'H'), and is now simply a defunct feature of the property's landscape.

Historical Significance

The C N Flagg Heliport, which held the FAA identifier '06CT', was a private-use heliport owned and operated by C.N. Flagg & Co., Inc., a major industrial and utility construction company. Its sole purpose was to support the company's business operations. The heliport was used for corporate and executive transport, allowing key personnel to travel quickly between the Meriden headquarters, major job sites, and regional airports, thereby bypassing traffic and maximizing efficiency. It was a symbol of the company's logistical capabilities during its active years.

Reopening Prospects

There are no known public plans or prospects for reopening the heliport. The decision to reactivate the facility would be entirely at the discretion of C.N. Flagg & Co., Inc. Given that the heliport has been closed for nearly a decade and the general trend of corporations reducing private aviation assets due to high costs, the likelihood of it being reopened is extremely low.
