Not applicable. The existence of this airfield cannot be verified in any official or historical records. It is considered to be a fictional data point.
Not applicable. The airport is believed to be a 'phantom' entry, likely a data artifact from an unofficial or user-generated database. It does not appear to have ever been an operational airfield.
The provided coordinates (33.22897, 133.129754) resolve to a remote, undeveloped, and steeply sloped mountainside covered in dense forest within the boundaries of Shimanto Town, Kōchi Prefecture. The terrain at this specific location is rugged and entirely unsuitable for the construction or operation of any type of runway or airfield.
This airfield has no known historical significance because it is not documented in any official aviation or military archives. The ICAO code 'JP-1207' is a non-standard format; official ICAO codes for Japan begin with 'RJ'. Such 'JP-XXXX' codes are commonly found in non-official databases for flight simulators, which sometimes contain erroneous or fictional locations. Furthermore, the name 'Kochi Auxiliary Airfield #3' does not correspond to any known Imperial Japanese Army/Navy, Japan Self-Defense Forces, or United States Forces Japan facility, past or present.
None. As the airfield is considered to be a fictional entry and never existed, there are no prospects for it to 'reopen'. The physical location is also completely unsuited for any future airport development.
