Bamori Airport

No official reason for the closure is documented. However, the airport's characteristics—a remote, unpaved dirt strip with no infrastructure—strongly indicate it was a private aerodrome. The most probable reason for its closure is abandonment. This typically occurs when the entity it served (such as a large private ranch, a mining operation, or a specific business interest) ceases operations, is sold, or no longer requires air access. Its proximity to the U.S. border also raises the possibility that it was decommissioned by Mexican authorities if it was found to be used as an unauthorized or clandestine airstrip for illicit activities, a common fate for such remote fields in the region.

The site is completely abandoned and non-operational. Current satellite imagery confirms that the airstrip is in a total state of dereliction. The dirt runway is heavily eroded, unmaintained, and being reclaimed by desert scrub and vegetation, making it completely unusable for any type of aircraft. There are no remaining buildings, hangars, or any form of aviation infrastructure at the location. The land has effectively reverted to its natural desert state.

Bamori Airport holds no major historical significance in the context of public or commercial aviation. It was a small, private-use airstrip. The identifier 'MX-1928' is not an official ICAO code but rather a non-official designator used in some third-party aviation databases to catalog smaller airfields. Its operations would have been limited to light, single-engine general aviation aircraft capable of landing on a short, unimproved dirt runway. Its primary function was likely to provide air access for the owners of a local ranch (the name 'Bamori' is likely tied to a local ranch or geographical feature) or to support agricultural or mining activities in this sparsely populated area of the Sonoran Desert.

There are no known or published plans, discussions, or prospects for reopening Bamori Airport. Given its remote location, the complete lack of infrastructure, and the absence of any apparent economic or strategic driver for its revival, the likelihood of it ever being reopened as an airport is virtually zero. It would require a significant private investment to clear, grade, and restore the runway for a purpose that no longer appears to exist.
