Economic and land redevelopment. The airfield was sold and converted into a large-scale photovoltaic (solar) power plant. This was a more profitable use of the large, flat, and open land.
The site has been completely transformed and is now the location of the San Biagio Photovoltaic Park (Parco Fotovoltaico di San Biagio). The former runway and taxiway areas are covered by thousands of ground-mounted solar panels, making it one of the largest solar farms in Italy. While the faint outline of the runway is still visible from satellite imagery, all aviation infrastructure has been removed and replaced by the energy generation facility.
Icaro Airfield (known in Italian as Aviosuperficie Icaro) was a significant private airfield for general aviation in the Veneto region. It was not a military or commercial airport but a crucial hub for recreational flying, flight training, and ultralight aircraft (ULM - Ultraleggeri a Motore). It featured a 900-meter grass runway (02/20) and was home to a local flying club and flight school. For many years, it was a vibrant center for the local aviation community in the Treviso province, hosting events and serving private pilots from across the region.
None. The prospect of reopening the airfield is virtually zero. The land has been permanently and completely redeveloped with industrial-scale infrastructure for energy production. The cost and complexity of decommissioning the massive solar farm to restore the site for aviation use would be prohibitive and economically unfeasible.
