Nagoya International Airfield

The airport does not exist in reality. The ICAO code 'JP-2179' is a non-standard identifier commonly used in flight simulator scenery databases (like X-Plane or Microsoft Flight Simulator) to represent fictional or user-added airfields, preventing conflicts with real-world ICAO codes. Real Japanese ICAO codes begin with 'RJ'. The query is based on data from a flight simulator, not official aviation records.

The provided coordinates (35.07502, 136.85927) do not point to a former or current airfield. This location is in the Kinjō-futō (金城ふ頭) area of the Port of Nagoya. The site is a major commercial, logistics, and entertainment hub featuring:
- **Legoland Japan Resort**
- **SCMAGLEV and Railway Park** (a museum for Central Japan Railway Company)
- **Port Messe Nagoya** (Nagoya International Exhibition Hall)
- Extensive port and container terminal facilities.

The fictional 'Nagoya International Airfield (JP-2179)' has no historical significance. However, the history of international air travel in Nagoya involves two real airports:

1. **Nagoya Airport (IATA: NKM, ICAO: RJNA)**: Also known as Komaki Airport, this was the primary international airport for the Chubu region until 2005. It handled all major international passenger and cargo flights for the area. After the opening of Chubu Centrair, it was repurposed.

2. **Chubu Centrair International Airport (IATA: NGO, ICAO: RJGG)**: Built on an artificial island in Ise Bay, this airport opened on February 17, 2005, to serve the 2005 World Expo. It took over all international flights and most domestic flights from the old Nagoya Airport (Komaki), becoming the region's main air gateway.

There are no plans or prospects for reopening, as the airport never existed. The land at the specified coordinates is fully developed for commercial, entertainment, and industrial port use with no available space for an airfield.
