Porter Airport

The specific reason is not publicly documented. However, for a small, private airstrip of this nature, closure is typically due to personal or economic factors related to the property owner. Common reasons include the sale of the land, the owner ceasing aviation activities, liability concerns, or the owner's passing. There is no evidence of closure due to an accident or military conversion.

The physical airstrip remains visible on the property. Satellite imagery shows a well-defined, mowed grass strip. The site is part of a private residence and the former runway appears to be maintained as a large lawn or open field. It is no longer registered or used as an official aviation facility.

Porter Airport was a small, private-use general aviation airstrip. Its significance was purely local, serving the needs of its owner for personal recreational or business flying. It consisted of a single turf/grass runway, approximately 2,400 feet long, oriented in a NW/SE direction. Operations would have been limited to light, single-engine aircraft. It was charted for over two decades as a private field, providing a known landing area for its owner and authorized pilots.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Porter Airport. As it is on private land and has been officially removed from aviation charts, any reopening would be solely at the discretion of the current landowner and would require a new registration and certification process with aviation authorities. This is considered highly unlikely.
