Approximately mid-2010s (circa 2015-2017). This estimation is based on analysis of historical satellite imagery. Images from 2012 show a clearly defined and maintained grass runway, while images from 2017 onwards show the area becoming progressively overgrown and integrated back into the surrounding farmland.
The airport was a small, private airstrip on a farm. The closure was not due to a singular event like a major accident, economic failure, or military conversion. The most probable reason is a simple cessation of private use. This typically happens when the property owner stops flying (due to age, health, or financial reasons), sells the property to a non-pilot, or passes away. The gradual, natural reclamation of the runway supports the conclusion of abandonment rather than a formal closure.
The site is no longer an airport. The land has been fully returned to agricultural use and is now a cultivated farm field. A faint outline of the former northwest/southeast-oriented grass runway is still visible in high-resolution satellite imagery, but it is completely overgrown and unusable for any aviation purposes. The area is indistinguishable from the surrounding farmland from the ground.
Brazeale Farm Airport held no major historical significance on a national or regional level. It was a private, unregistered grass airstrip whose importance was limited to its owner and local aviation enthusiasts. Operations would have consisted of light, single-engine general aviation aircraft used for personal and recreational flying. The name strongly suggests it was owned and operated by the Brazeale family for use with their farm. The identifier 'US-10567' is a non-official code used by third-party databases (like OurAirports.com) to track small or defunct airfields, not a formal ICAO or FAA identifier, which further highlights its private, unofficial status.
There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the airport. As it was a private facility on private land that has since been converted back to farmland, any potential for reopening would be solely at the discretion and expense of the current landowner. There is no public or commercial interest in its revival.
