Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 26, 2025
Closure Date

Estimated to be between 1993 and 1998. The airport was last depicted on the 1993 San Antonio Sectional Chart. By the time the 1998 World Aeronautical Chart was published, it was no longer listed, indicating it had been officially closed and removed from aviation databases within that five-year window.

Reason for Closure

The exact reason for closure is not officially documented, which is common for small, private airfields. The closure was most likely due to the owner ceasing aviation activities, selling the property, or passing away. There is no evidence to suggest it was closed for military conversion, a major accident, or broader economic reasons.

Current Status

The airport is permanently closed and non-operational. Recent satellite imagery shows that the faint outline of the former north-south runway is still visible in the landscape, but it is overgrown and completely unsuitable for aircraft use. The property is now used for rural residential and agricultural purposes, with some equipment and vehicles stored on the grounds. The original Quonset hut hangar still stands at the north end of the former runway.

Historical Significance

Longs Farm Airport (formerly assigned FAA identifier: 30TE) was a private general aviation airfield. Its significance was primarily local, serving the personal and possibly agricultural needs of its owner, W.B. Long. The airport was established sometime between 1978 and 1982. It featured a single 2,600-foot turf runway aligned 17/35. Operations would have been limited to light, single-engine aircraft. A distinctive Quonset hut-style hangar was located at the north end of the runway, and aerial photos from its active period confirm the presence of at least one aircraft on the field. The ICAO code 'US-10590' is a non-official identifier from a third-party database and not an official FAA or ICAO designation.

Reopening Prospects

None. There are no known plans or prospects for Longs Farm Airport to reopen. The land is privately owned and has been repurposed for non-aviation use for over two decades. Re-establishing it as an airport would require significant investment and recertification, which is extremely unlikely.
