Hodgeville Airport

The reason for closure is not documented but is almost certainly due to factors common for small, private airfields. These include the owner no longer having a need for it, the cost of maintenance, lack of use, or the sale of the land. There is no evidence to suggest it was closed due to a specific accident, military conversion, or regulatory action. It was simply abandoned.

Satellite imagery confirms the site is abandoned. A faint outline of the former northwest/southeast runway is still visible in a field approximately 3.5 km northeast of the town of Hodgeville. The surface is overgrown with grass and is unusable for aircraft. There are no hangars, terminals, or any other aviation infrastructure remaining on the site. The land has effectively reverted to being part of the surrounding prairie and agricultural landscape.

Hodgeville Airport held local, not national, significance. It was a simple grass/dirt airstrip serving the rural community of Hodgeville, Saskatchewan, Canada (Note: The 'CA' in the ICAO prefix refers to Canada, not California). Its primary operations would have been for general aviation, including recreational flying for local pilots and potentially agricultural aviation services like crop dusting, which is vital in the region. It never supported commercial, scheduled, or significant military operations.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Hodgeville Airport. Given its long-term abandoned state, lack of infrastructure, and the significant investment that would be required to restore it to a safe, usable condition, a reopening is considered highly improbable. The local aviation needs are met by other nearby airports.
