Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 25, 2025
Closure Date

The exact closure date is not officially documented. Based on analysis of historical satellite imagery, the airstrip appeared maintained and potentially active until the early 2010s. By the mid-to-late 2010s, the runway shows significant degradation and lack of maintenance, suggesting it was abandoned and ceased operations during that period.

Reason for Closure

The airport was a private airstrip, not a public or commercial facility. The most likely reason for its closure is abandonment by its owner. This typically occurs when the property is sold, the owner no longer has a need for air access, or can no longer afford the upkeep of the runway. There is no evidence to suggest closure was due to a specific accident, military conversion, or official government action.

Current Status

The site is currently abandoned. Satellite imagery confirms the physical outline of the dirt/gravel runway still exists but is in a state of disrepair. It is unmaintained, partially overgrown with vegetation, and shows signs of being crossed by ground vehicle tracks. There are no hangars, terminals, or any other aviation-related infrastructure remaining on the site. The land has reverted to its use as part of a rural ranching property.

Historical Significance

La Comisaría (San Rosendo) Airport was a private, rural airstrip. Its significance was not commercial or military, but rather functional for its private owner(s). The names 'La Comisaría' and 'San Rosendo' likely refer to the local ranch (rancho) or property it served. Operations would have been limited to general aviation, consisting of small, propeller-driven aircraft (e.g., Cessna, Piper). These aircraft would have been used for personal transportation to and from the remote location, agricultural purposes such as cattle spotting or crop dusting, or to support recreational activities like hunting on the private land.

Reopening Prospects

There are no known or published plans to reopen this airstrip. As a privately owned field that has been abandoned for years, any prospect of reopening would depend entirely on the current landowner's initiative and financial investment. Given its remote location and the proximity of the larger Ciudad Acuña International Airport (MMCC) for regional access, there is no apparent public or commercial demand that would justify its revival.
