Ojo de Agua Airport

The airport was privately owned and its closure was most likely due to economic factors or a change in the owner's needs. Common reasons for the closure of such private airstrips include the sale of the associated property (ranch or farm), the owner ceasing to operate aircraft, or the operational costs becoming prohibitive. There is no evidence to suggest the closure was due to a major accident, military conversion, or encroachment by urban development.

The site is currently abandoned as an airfield. The ~4,000-foot gravel runway remains clearly visible from satellite view but is in a state of disrepair. It is unmaintained, partially overgrown with vegetation, and shows signs of erosion. The land has effectively reverted to being part of the surrounding agricultural landscape, and while the physical scar of the runway persists, it is not used for any aviation purposes. It may be used informally by farm vehicles.

Ojo de Agua Airport's significance was entirely local and private. It served as a private airstrip for a large ranch or agricultural business in the fertile San Francisco de Conchos municipality, an area known for farming. Its operations would have been limited to general aviation, supporting the owner's activities. This likely included light, single-engine aircraft (such as Cessna or Piper models) for personal transportation, moving personnel, or transporting urgent supplies to and from the remote property. It never served commercial, scheduled, or public flights.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Ojo de Agua Airport. As a small, private airstrip that fell into disuse, any potential reopening would be contingent on a new private owner acquiring the land and having both the need and the capital to restore the runway to a safe, usable condition. The prospect of it being developed into a public or commercial airport is virtually zero due to its remote location and proximity to other regional airfields.
