Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 25, 2025
Closure Date

The airfield closed sometime between 2018 and 2020. Satellite imagery from 2018 shows a clear, operational runway, while imagery from 2020 onwards shows the land being tilled for agriculture. The exact date is not publicly documented, which is common for the closure of small, private airfields.

Reason for Closure

The closure was due to the cessation of private operations and the land being reverted to its primary agricultural use. As a private grass strip located on farmland, its existence was dependent on the landowner's decision to maintain and operate it. There is no evidence of closure due to accidents, military conversion, or regulatory action; it was most likely an economic or personal decision by the owner.

Current Status

The site of the former airfield has been fully returned to agricultural use. The land where the runway was located is now a tilled and cultivated field, fully integrated with the surrounding farmland. While a faint outline of the former runway may be visible in some aerial imagery due to soil compaction, the site is definitively no longer an aviation facility and is not usable by aircraft.

Historical Significance

Hadsund Airfield was a small, private general aviation (GA) airfield. It consisted of a single grass runway, approximately 600 meters long with a 10/28 orientation. Its significance was entirely local, serving as a base for the owner and potentially a few other local pilots for recreational flying in light aircraft and ultralights. It did not handle any commercial, scheduled, or military traffic and held no major regional or national importance. Its primary role was to support the local hobbyist flying community.

Reopening Prospects

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Hadsund Airfield. Given that the land has been converted back to active agricultural production and the airfield was a private endeavor, a reopening is considered extremely unlikely. It would require a new initiative from a landowner, significant investment, and a new round of regulatory approvals.
