Not applicable. Research indicates that Matsunami Gyrofield (JP-2122) was likely a fictional airport that did not exist as a real-world aviation facility. There are no official records of its operation or closure.
Not applicable. As the airport is believed to be a fictional entity, there is no real-world reason for closure. Its 'closed' status in some online databases may be due to its removal from a scenery package or an arbitrary data flag in a non-official database.
Analysis of current and historical satellite imagery for the coordinates (37.34879, 137.24292) shows the site is occupied by a large-scale solar power plant. There are no visible remnants or historical evidence of any past aviation infrastructure such as a runway, taxiways, or hangars.
The airport has no known historical significance. The ICAO code 'JP-2122' is not a standard, official designation for an airport in Japan (which begin with 'RJ'). The name and code appear almost exclusively in non-official, third-party aviation databases, strongly suggesting it originated as a user-created add-on for flight simulator software (e.g., X-Plane or Microsoft Flight Simulator). It did not handle any real-world operations.
There are no plans or prospects for reopening, as there is no evidence the airport ever existed as a physical facility. The land is currently repurposed for renewable energy generation.
