Los Jaguares Airport

The exact reason is not publicly documented, which is common for private airfields. However, the closure is almost certainly due to economic factors and a change in the owner's operational needs. Reasons for such closures typically include the sale of the associated property (ranch), the high cost of runway and facility maintenance relative to its use, or the owner no longer requiring private air access. There is no evidence to suggest the closure was due to a specific accident, environmental issue, or military conversion.

The airport is permanently closed and non-operational. Current satellite imagery confirms that the single asphalt runway is in a state of disrepair, with numerous cracks, faded markings, and vegetation growing through the surface. The associated support buildings appear to be integrated with the surrounding ranch property. The site is effectively abandoned as an aviation facility and has reverted to being part of the private landholding it once served.

Los Jaguares Airport was a private airstrip (aeródromo privado) and not a public or commercial airport. Its significance was tied to the private entity that owned it, likely a large ranch or agricultural business. Its operations would have been limited to general aviation and business aviation, handling small to medium-sized private aircraft. The primary functions would have included:
- Providing direct air access for the property owners, their families, and guests.
- Supporting business activities, such as flying in investors or managers.
- Potentially facilitating recreational activities common in the region, such as hunting.
- Possible use for agricultural aviation (crop dusting), given the surrounding landscape.
It did not handle scheduled passenger flights or significant cargo operations.

There are no known or published plans to reopen Los Jaguares Airport. As a private asset, any initiative to restore and reopen the airfield would have to come from the current landowner. Given the significant cost required to resurface the runway and bring any facilities up to modern standards, and the lack of public or commercial demand, reopening is highly improbable.
