Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 27, 2025
Closure Date

The exact date is unknown as this was a private airfield. However, based on historical aeronautical charts, the airport was still depicted as active on the 1987 Miami Sectional Chart but was no longer shown on the 2003 chart. This indicates it was likely closed sometime between the late 1980s and the early 2000s.

Reason for Closure

There are no official records detailing the reason for closure, which is common for small, private airfields. The most probable reason is that the private owner no longer had a need for the airstrip. This could be due to the sale of the property, a change in the owner's aviation activities, or the cessation of the agricultural operations it may have supported. It was not closed due to military conversion or a major reported accident.

Current Status

The site is currently agricultural land, consistent with the surrounding area. Satellite imagery clearly shows the faint, overgrown outline of the former north-south grass runway. There are no remaining airport structures such as hangars, terminals, or fueling facilities. The land has been fully reclaimed for farming, and the former airstrip is not maintained or usable for aviation.

Historical Significance

Graham Landing Strip was a small, privately owned airfield. It was designated as 'GRAHAM (PVT)' on aeronautical charts. It featured a single unpaved, north-south runway with a listed length of approximately 2,500 feet. Its operations were limited to general aviation and it likely served the personal transportation needs of the owner and supported local agricultural activities, such as crop dusting for the surrounding groves and farms. It held no major regional or national significance and was not open for public use.

Reopening Prospects

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Graham Landing Strip. As a privately owned field that has been defunct for over two decades and fully integrated back into agricultural land, the likelihood of its reactivation as an airport is virtually zero. The aviation needs of the Moore Haven area are served by the nearby Moore Haven Executive Airport (ICAO: KX14).
