Circa 2019-2020. Analysis of historical satellite imagery indicates the airport was intact and appeared operational as of May 2019. By mid-2020, the site was cleared and under heavy construction, confirming its closure and demolition within that timeframe.
Economic reasons and industrial development. The airport was situated on valuable land on the outskirts of the growing city of Mexicali. The land was sold and completely redeveloped to build the 'Parque Industrial Calafia II', a large industrial park. The economic value of the land for industrial purposes ultimately outweighed its function as a private airfield.
The site has been completely transformed and is now occupied by the 'Parque Industrial Calafia II'. The former dirt runway, taxiways, and hangars have been entirely removed. In their place are large, modern industrial warehouses and manufacturing facilities occupied by various companies. There are no visible remnants of the former airport.
Aereo Servicio Nuñez Airport was a private airfield that served as the primary operational base for 'Servicio Aéreo Nuñez S.A. de C.V.', a major agricultural aviation company. Its principal role was to support the extensive agricultural industry in the Mexicali Valley, one of Mexico's most important farming regions. Operations consisted mainly of crop dusting (aerial fumigation), seeding, and fertilization flights. The airport was a vital piece of local infrastructure for the agricultural sector and also handled some general aviation traffic.
Non-existent. The land has been permanently and completely repurposed for industrial use with significant, permanent structures built on the site. There are no plans, discussions, or possibilities for the airport to ever reopen at this location.
