Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 25, 2025
Closure Date

Approximately 2006-2007. Satellite imagery shows the grass runway was intact in 2005, but by 2007, large-scale construction had begun on the site, completely obliterating the airfield.

Reason for Closure

Land redevelopment for industrial use. The land occupied by the airfield was sold and developed into a major logistics and distribution hub due to its strategic location on the outskirts of the Tokyo metropolitan area.

Current Status

The site of the former airfield has been completely transformed. It is now occupied by several large-scale, modern logistics centers and warehouses, most notably the GLP Noda Logistics Park. The area is a key industrial and distribution zone for Noda City, and no trace of the original runway or airfield facilities remains.

Historical Significance

Nakanodai Airfield, also known as Noda Glider Port (ι‡Žη”°ζ»‘η©Ίε ΄), was a private, recreational airfield situated on the riverbed of the Edo River. It was operated by the Noda Flying Club and served as a hub for the local general aviation community. Operations primarily consisted of ultralight aircraft, gliders, and radio-controlled model airplanes. It held no commercial or military significance but was an important local site for aviation enthusiasts. The ICAO code 'JP-2249' is an unofficial identifier, likely assigned by flight simulator communities, as the airfield was too small to have an official ICAO designation.

Reopening Prospects

None. The land has been permanently and extensively redeveloped for high-value industrial purposes. There are no plans, discussions, or prospects for reopening an airfield at this location.
