Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 26, 2025
Closure Date

Unknown. The airfield is listed as 'Closed' in several non-governmental aviation databases, a status that likely appeared sometime in the 2000s or 2010s. However, as a private strip, it may have never been officially 'open' to the public, and the closure simply reflects a change in registration status or a request for removal from charts for privacy.

Reason for Closure

The specific reason is not documented in public records. For small, private airfields like Orson Field, closure is typically due to a change in property ownership, the owner ceasing aviation activities, the owner's death, or the high cost and liability of maintaining a private strip. There is no evidence of military conversion, major accidents, or economic failure in a commercial sense.

Current Status

The site is a private residential property. Satellite imagery shows the grass runway is still clearly visible and appears to be well-maintained and mowed, integrated into the property's landscaping. A large building that resembles a hangar is located at the north end of the strip. While the physical runway exists, it is not available for public use, and its current use for aviation by the landowner is unconfirmed. The property is private, and access is restricted.

Historical Significance

Orson Field was a small, private general aviation airfield. Its historical significance is limited to serving the recreational flying needs of its owner(s). The airfield consists of a single, well-defined turf runway, approximately 1,800-2,000 feet in length, oriented roughly north-south. Operations would have been limited to light, single-engine aircraft capable of using a short grass strip. The identifier 'US-10756' is not an official ICAO or FAA code but an internal designation used by some third-party airport data aggregators.

Reopening Prospects

None known. As a privately owned airfield, any potential for future aviation activity is at the sole discretion of the current landowner. There are no public plans, discussions, or prospects for it to be reopened as a public-use airport.
