San Vittore Airport

The closure was due to economic reasons. The cooperative society that operated the airport, 'Società cooperativa per l'aeroporto regionale del Moesano' (SCARM), was liquidated after facing insurmountable financial difficulties. The local municipalities, which had previously provided support, withdrew their funding, and no new viable operator could be found to take over the airfield's management and financial burdens.

The site is no longer used for any aviation activities. The land has been rezoned by the local municipality for new development. A major project is underway to construct a new cantonal Justice Center ('Centro di Giustizia') on a significant portion of the former airfield. The remaining areas of the former runway and grounds have been repurposed for agriculture or are slated for future commercial and industrial development. The runway itself is no longer visible or maintained.

San Vittore was a small regional airfield with a grass runway, primarily serving the Moesa region in the canton of Grisons. It was an important center for general aviation, catering to private pilots and flight training schools. The airport was particularly well-known as a major hub for sport parachuting and skydiving in the region for many years, hosting a popular skydiving center. It operated strictly under Visual Flight Rules (VFR) and did not handle any scheduled commercial or large-scale cargo operations. Its significance was rooted in local sport and recreational aviation.

There are no plans or prospects for reopening San Vittore Airport. The official removal from the federal aviation infrastructure plan is a definitive step that is extremely difficult to reverse. Furthermore, the economic factors that led to its closure persist, and the physical redevelopment of the land for non-aviation purposes, including the construction of the Justice Center, makes a return to aviation operations impossible.
