Hangman Creek Ranch Airport

The exact reason is not publicly documented, as this was a private airstrip. The closure was most likely due to abandonment by the property owner. Common reasons for such closures include the owner selling their aircraft, ceasing to fly due to age or health, a change in property ownership, or a decision to repurpose the land for more profitable agricultural activities. There is no evidence to suggest it was closed due to a specific accident, economic failure of a commercial operation, or military conversion.

The site of the former airport has been fully reclaimed for agricultural use. The land where the north-south runway was located is now a hayfield or pasture, completely integrated with the surrounding farmland of the Hangman Creek Ranch. While a very faint outline of the former strip can sometimes be discerned in high-resolution satellite imagery, there are no remaining aviation infrastructure or markings, and the site is unusable as an airfield.

The airport holds no major historical significance in a public or commercial context. It was a private-use turf airstrip located on the Hangman Creek Ranch. Its operations would have been exclusively for the owner's personal use, such as recreational flying in a light aircraft (e.g., a Cessna or Piper), and possibly for agricultural purposes or business related to the ranch. It was not a public airport, had no commercial services like fuel or an FBO, and was not listed in official FAA publications. The ICAO identifier 'US-11386' is an internal catalog number from a non-governmental online aviation database and not an official code.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening the Hangman Creek Ranch Airport. Since it was a private facility on private land that has now been converted back to agriculture, its revival would be entirely at the discretion and expense of the current landowner. There is no public, commercial, or governmental interest in re-establishing an airport at this location.
