Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 24, 2025
Closure Date

Unknown (Likely between 2008 and 2015)

Reason for Closure

The airport, which was a small private airstrip rather than a formal public airport, was closed due to land redevelopment. The site is located within the Bromelton State Development Area (SDA), a major industrial and logistics precinct established by the Queensland Government in 2008. The land was repurposed for large-scale industrial and freight infrastructure, making the airstrip's operation unviable and incompatible with the new land use.

Current Status

The site of the former airstrip has been completely absorbed into the Bromelton State Development Area. There are no visible remnants of the runway or any aviation facilities. The land is now either developed with industrial infrastructure, such as the SCT Logistics rail terminal and other warehouses, or is cleared agricultural land slated for future industrial development within the SDA.

Historical Significance

The designation 'Bromelton Airport' is a misnomer; it was a small, private, and likely unpaved grass airstrip. The ICAO code 'AU-0667' is a non-official identifier used by some third-party data aggregators, not an official code assigned by Australian aviation authorities. Its operations were minimal and private in nature, likely consisting of recreational flying, agricultural use (such as crop dusting), or personal transport for the property owner. It held no regional or national significance and never handled commercial, scheduled, or significant general aviation traffic.

Reopening Prospects

There are zero prospects for reopening. The land has been permanently and irreversibly repurposed for heavy industrial and freight logistics use as part of a long-term, state-level economic development project. The nearby Beaudesert Airport (YBAU) serves the general aviation needs of the Scenic Rim region.
