La Mora Airport

No official reason for the closure has been published. Given its classification as a small, privately-owned, unpaved airstrip in a remote rural area, the most probable reason is abandonment by its owner. This could be due to economic factors, the owner no longer operating an aircraft, sale of the land, or the cessation of the agricultural or business activity it was built to support. There is no evidence to suggest it was closed due to a specific accident or for military conversion.

As of the most recent satellite imagery, the site is defunct as an airport. The dirt runway is still visible but is unmaintained, overgrown with vegetation, and crossed by vehicle tracks. The land appears to have reverted to agricultural or ranching use, with the former airstrip likely serving as a simple access road for farm vehicles. It is not operational and has no facilities.

La Mora Airport (or more accurately, La Mora Airstrip) holds no major historical significance. It was a small, private aerodrome, not a public or commercial airport. Its operations were limited to general aviation. When active, it was likely used for private transportation to and from the remote ranch or farm on which it is located, and potentially for agricultural aviation purposes such as crop dusting. It did not handle any scheduled commercial passenger, cargo, or significant military operations.

There are no known or published plans or prospects for reopening La Mora Airport. As a small, privately-owned strip that has fallen into disrepair, any potential reopening would be entirely dependent on the initiative and funding of the current landowner. It would require significant groundwork to restore the runway and recertification from Mexico's Federal Civil Aviation Agency (AFAC), making a reopening highly unlikely.
