Approximately between 1976 and 1981. The airport was last depicted on the 1976 Cleveland Sectional Aeronautical Chart and was absent from the 1981 edition of the same chart.
The specific reason for closure is not officially documented. However, for a small, privately-owned airfield like Armington Airport, closure was most likely due to economic factors, the sale of the land, or a decision by the owner to cease operations. There is no evidence to suggest it was closed due to a major accident, military conversion, or regulatory action.
The site of the former airport has been fully converted into private agricultural land. The faint outline of the former north-south runway is still visible from satellite imagery, but it is now part of a larger cultivated field. There are no remaining hangars, buildings, or any other aviation-related infrastructure on the property.
Armington Airport was a small, private general aviation airfield serving the local community. Its significance was limited to providing a base for recreational pilots and their light aircraft. Established sometime between 1953 and 1960, it featured a single unpaved turf runway, approximately 2,200 feet in length. Operations would have consisted of small, single-engine planes like Cessnas and Pipers. It held no role as a commercial or military facility and its historical importance is confined to the local aviation history of Ashtabula County.
None. There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Armington Airport. The land is privately owned and has been used for agriculture for over four decades, making any potential conversion back to an airfield highly improbable and economically unfeasible.
