Flying H Ranch Inc Airport

The exact reason for the closure is not publicly documented, which is typical for a small, private airfield. The closure was not due to military conversion, a specific accident, or urban development. It is presumed to be the result of a private decision by the owner(s), likely due to the sale of the property, the owner ceasing to fly, or the dissolution of the business entity 'Flying H Ranch, Inc.' that operated the ranch and airstrip.

The airport is permanently closed and defunct. Current satellite imagery of the coordinates (33.1978, -84.084396) shows the clear outline of the former runway, but it is completely overgrown with grass and vegetation, rendering it unusable for any aviation activity. The land is part of a large rural property and appears to be used as pasture or is simply fallow. The access road, 'Flying H Ranch Rd', still exists.

The Flying H Ranch Inc Airport was a private general aviation airfield with local, rather than national, significance. Its primary purpose was to serve the transportation and recreational needs of the owners and guests of the Flying H Ranch. When active, it featured a single unpaved turf/dirt runway, oriented north-south, with a length of approximately 3,300 feet. Operations would have consisted of light, single-engine aircraft for personal and business travel. It was never a public-use or commercial airport.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the airport. Reinstating the airfield would require a significant private investment from the current landowner to clear, grade, and potentially license the runway. Given its history as a private strip and the proximity of other public-use general aviation airports, there is no apparent commercial or public demand that would justify its reopening. The prospects are considered non-existent.
