Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 27, 2025
Closure Date

The exact date of its official closure is not documented. However, it was likely de-listed from aviation databases and ceased to be a formally recognized airfield sometime in the 2000s or 2010s. It was reportedly established around 1971 and appears to have been operational through at least the 1990s.

Reason for Closure

The specific reason for its closure is unknown, as is common for small, private airfields. Closures of this type are typically due to the owner's retirement from flying, the sale of the property to a non-aviator, rising insurance/liability costs, or a decline in personal use. There is no evidence to suggest it was closed due to a major accident or for military/commercial conversion.

Current Status

The site remains private property. Satellite imagery shows that the turf runway is still clearly visible and appears to be well-maintained and regularly mowed, suggesting it may still be used intermittently by the landowner for private aviation activities, even if it is no longer an officially registered airport. A large building, likely the original hangar, still stands at the northeast end of the runway. The surrounding land is used for residential and agricultural purposes. The airfield is not open to the public.

Historical Significance

Strang Airpark was a privately owned, private-use airfield. Its significance was primarily to its owner and potentially a small number of local pilots with permission to use the facility. It served general aviation traffic, consisting of light, single-engine aircraft such as Cessnas, Pipers, or similar planes. The airfield featured a single turf/grass runway, oriented approximately northeast/southwest (roughly 03/21), with a length of about 2,400 feet. It did not handle commercial, cargo, or military operations and held no major role in national aviation history, serving instead as a personal utility for its owner.

Reopening Prospects

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Strang Airpark as an officially registered or public-use airport. As it is on private land, any future use for aviation is at the sole discretion of the property owner. It is highly unlikely to be re-certified and listed on official aeronautical charts.
