The heliport was officially cancelled in the FAA's database on December 15, 2011. Its last effective date of registration was October 20, 2011.
The specific reason for the closure is not publicly documented. However, as a privately owned and operated facility located at a residential property, the closure was almost certainly due to private reasons. This could include the owner selling the helicopter, no longer needing the facility, selling the property, or simply choosing not to maintain the FAA registration. There is no evidence to suggest it was closed for economic, safety, or military conversion reasons.
The site is a private residential property located on Atoka-Idaville Road in Atoka, Tennessee. Satellite imagery confirms that the concrete pad which served as the helipad still exists on the property, located adjacent to a large outbuilding behind the main residence. It appears to be used as a parking area or part of the driveway for the outbuilding. The site is not accessible to the public and no longer functions as an active aviation facility.
Burnett Heliport had no major public or historical significance. It was a private-use heliport registered to an individual, James A. Burnett. Its operations would have been exclusively for the personal or business use of the owner and their private aircraft. It did not handle commercial, cargo, or scheduled passenger traffic. The facility consisted of a single 50x50 ft concrete helipad located on a large residential property.
There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Burnett Heliport. As it is a decommissioned facility on private residential land, any potential for reopening would be entirely dependent on the current or a future property owner's desire to operate a helicopter from the site and their ability to meet the requirements for re-registration with the FAA.
