Dracon Field

As a small, registered private aerodrome, the specific reason for its closure is not on public record. The closure is characteristic of private airfields ceasing operations due to personal reasons of the owner, such as retirement from flying, sale of the property, or increased costs of insurance and maintenance. There is no evidence to suggest it was closed due to a specific accident, regulatory action, or conversion for military or large-scale commercial use.

The site is now a private rural residential property. Current satellite imagery shows that the former runway area is a large, well-maintained lawn integrated into the residence's property. The outline of the northwest/southeast runway is still faintly visible from the air. A large building, which was likely the hangar, still exists on the property and appears to be in use as a workshop or large garage for the private home. The site is no longer equipped or maintained as an airfield.

Dracon Field was a private aerodrome used for general aviation and recreational flying. Its name, 'Dracon', is believed to be a portmanteau derived from the name of its owner/operator, D. Conn. According to aviation supplements from the mid-1990s, the airport featured a single turf runway designated 09/27 with a length of 2,200 feet. Its operations would have been limited to small, single-engine propeller aircraft. The airport's significance was local, serving as a private base for its owner and likely a few fellow aviation enthusiasts in the Wellington County area.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Dracon Field. The property has been fully converted to a private residence for approximately two decades, and its use as an active airfield has been permanently discontinued. Re-establishing it as an airport is considered extremely unlikely.
