Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 26, 2025
Closure Date

Circa 2020-2022. The exact date is unknown as this was a private airstrip that gradually fell into disuse rather than being officially decommissioned. Satellite imagery analysis shows a clear decline in runway maintenance and activity around this period.

Reason for Closure

Cessation of private use and likely non-registration. The airstrip was not listed in the official register of aerodromes maintained by the Polish Civil Aviation Authority (ULC). Its closure is attributed to the private owner(s) ceasing aviation activities. This is a common fate for small, private fields that either fall into disuse or do not complete the formal registration process required by national aviation law.

Current Status

The site has reverted to agricultural land. The physical imprint of the ~450-meter grass runway is still faintly visible in satellite views, but it is overgrown and no longer maintained or usable for aviation. There are no hangars, buildings, or any other aviation infrastructure remaining on the site. It is, for all practical purposes, a field.

Historical Significance

The airstrip served as a private grass runway for general aviation. Its primary function was recreational flying, likely for ultralight and light sport aircraft. It held no known commercial or military significance. Its history is that of a typical private-use field, established by an aviation enthusiast for personal use, which was operational for at least 15 years (visible on satellite imagery from the early 2000s). The identifier PL-0163 was an unofficial code used in non-governmental aviation databases, not an official ICAO designation.

Reopening Prospects

None known. There are no public or known private plans to reopen the airstrip. Given that the land is privately owned and has reverted to agricultural use, any prospect of reopening would require a new initiative to purchase or lease the land and undergo the complete and costly process of registering it as an official aerodrome with the Polish Civil Aviation Authority (ULC).
