Flying A Ranch Airport

The specific reason is not publicly documented. As a private airfield serving a ranch, the closure was most likely due to a change in property ownership, the owner ceasing aviation activities, or the high cost and effort of maintenance. There is no evidence of closure due to an accident or military conversion.

The airport is permanently closed and has been fully reclaimed by nature. The former runway is now an overgrown field or pasture, and its outline is barely visible in modern satellite images. The land is used for agricultural or ranching purposes, and there are no remaining signs of active aviation infrastructure.

Flying A Ranch Airport was a private-use airfield in McClain County, Oklahoma. Its purpose was to support the activities of the ranch it was on. It featured a single, unpaved north-south turf runway, estimated to be approximately 2,600 feet long. Operations would have been limited to light general aviation aircraft, such as single-engine planes, used for recreational flying or personal transportation by the ranch's owner. It held no public, commercial, or military significance.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the Flying A Ranch Airport. Given that the land has been converted back to pasture and the airfield has been officially closed for over a decade, reopening is considered highly unlikely.
