Information Not Available. The airport does not appear in official records, and its existence as a formal aviation facility is unconfirmed. The 'closed' status likely originates from a non-official, user-edited database where it was marked as such without verifiable sources.
Reason Not Applicable. As the airport's existence cannot be verified in official aviation databases (like the FAA) or through satellite imagery, a reason for closure cannot be determined. If it ever existed, it was likely a private grass strip that was decommissioned and fully returned to agricultural use.
The site at coordinates 40.844138, -93.543606 is currently agricultural land, specifically a cultivated farm field. Satellite imagery shows no remaining evidence of a runway, hangar, or any other airport infrastructure.
No verifiable historical significance. The identifier 'US-10369' is not a valid ICAO code, and there are no FAA or historical records of a 'Watkins Private Airport' at this location. It was likely a small, private, and unregistered grass strip for personal use, if it existed at all. It would not have handled commercial, military, or significant general aviation operations.
None. As there is no existing airport infrastructure and no official record of the facility, there are no plans or prospects for reopening. The land is in active agricultural use.
