Grand River Airport

The closure was not due to a specific incident, military conversion, or major economic event. As a private airstrip, it most likely closed due to gradual disuse. Common reasons for the closure of such small, private facilities include the owner ceasing aviation activities (due to age, health, or cost), the sale of the property to a non-aviator, or the prohibitive cost of maintenance for a recreational-use-only field. The land was ultimately reclaimed for its agricultural value.

The site of the former airport is now completely reverted to agricultural land. High-resolution satellite imagery confirms that the area where the runway once existed is now a cultivated field, indistinguishable from the surrounding farmland. There is no remaining aviation infrastructure on the site, such as hangars, runway markers, or a windsock. The land is actively used for farming.

Grand River Airport had no major historical significance. It was a private, unpaved (turf) airstrip serving general aviation. Its operations would have been limited to light, single-engine aircraft for recreational flying by the owner and possibly local pilots. It did not handle any scheduled commercial passenger, cargo, or military operations. The identifier 'CA-1015' is not an official ICAO code issued by the International Civil Aviation Organization but rather a non-standard identifier used by some third-party aviation databases to track smaller or unregistered aerodromes. Its existence was primarily of local and personal importance to its users.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the Grand River Airport. Given that the land has been fully reclaimed for agriculture and the facility was a small private strip with no strategic importance, it is highly improbable that it will be reactivated as an airport in the future.
