This airport did exist. Recently the "X" at the end of the runway was paved over. The old runway is currently being used as a taxiway for the landing strip across the street.
It was planned to have six runways, with 2 of them 5000 m, 4 of them 4500 m. I don't understand why it was planned to be so long, but it would be really exciting if it were completed.
I was always really excited about the finish of the airport, but sadly, the construction was abandoned. Felipe Angeles is nice too and is way cheaper than building this one, but it's too far away from Mexico City. I hope at some day they could restart the construction because Mexico City really needs a large and close airport.
(From Google Maps the runway shape looked like 5km long. You can measure it.)
The airport is almost completed and is expected to be fully done in 2027. It will replace Douglas Charles Airport immediately after opening. The airport will feature a 3000 m runway.
Reply to @ReefShore316: I couldnβt find any record of such airport named "Lykes Mass Romor Airport." The location also points to a private road with no clear indications of two grass airstrips. Are you sure an airport of such name exists?
Miami Municipal Airport (demolished) Improvements - Miami FL ...Miami Municipal Airport (later Amelia Earhart Field) was Miami's first major airport, built on Glenn Curtiss-donated land, opening in 1929 as a vital hub for airlines like Pan Am and Eastern, famously housing Amelia Earhart's plane before her 1937 global flight; it thrived until the Navy took over in WWII, eventually closing in the 1950s, with its site now mostly developed, leaving only historical memories of its pivotal role in early aviation.
Key Stages:
Origins (Early 1900s - 1928): Aviation pioneer Glenn Curtiss donated land, leading to the construction of the field, initially known as Glenn Curtiss Field.
Miami Municipal Airport (1929-1940s): Became the official Miami Municipal Airport in 1929, hosting major airlines (Eastern, National, Pan Am) and events like the All-American Air Maneuvers.
Amelia Earhart Connection (1937): The field gained fame as the departure point for Amelia Earhart's final, ill-fated world flight attempt, with her Lockheed Electra based there.
WWII & Closure (1942-1950s): The U.S. Navy took over the facility during World War II, and after the war, it was officially closed in the late 1940s/early 1950s, making way for Miami's new, larger International Airport.
Renaming & Legacy (1947): The airport was renamed Amelia Earhart Field in her honor in 1947, though no physical structures remain today, its history lives on.
Lykes Mass Romor Airport is a Private Airfield facillity owned by Madison Leafrunner. The Airfield has Two Runways which were both grass. This new airport established in 2023 was designed for Madisonβs Piper Cherokee and Cessna 206.
Reply to @ReefShore316: Such for a private stol facility. Are you sure Charlie J. Smith cleared out the treesβor flattened the hill yet because of the slope?
MSBB is a private Seaplane base on Marathon florida. It was owned by Jamie rash which also owned Cove dusters Field. The largest plane seen here was a Twin otter that flew to Flying bone fish many times. James Keyback says.. β Iβve wanted to fish for macarellas so i pulled up to this marina and i was suprised to see a Cessna 172 Seaplane on the Dockβ There are two runways 1-19 2362 ft and 8-26 1297 ft and both intersect in a L shape.
Jaimes Field Was a private Stol aviation facility used and operated by Charlie J. Smith. The airport had just started operation in november 2025 after Smith found out that he could make his own backyard Strip for his stol plane. He loved to bush fly in his home base Nanwalek airport but he wanted his own Field and his dream came true. Notice the big divides plano in the back of the runway, Charlie just says βI donβt wanna move it my plane can land perfectly.β
The Miami Skyline Water Runway Was a Seaplane base located in Virginia key, Florida. The base even had a concrete runway, had Seaplane tours, and Seaplane Air shows, which they stopped doing in 2024. Seaplane operations started in 2017 and Concrete Runway operations started in 2019. Cousin says, βIβve been here, Iβve saw a few caravan and 185 skywagon Seaplanes, I also saw a twin otter.β

This airport has seasonal commercial flights to Copenhagen, and its 3047 m long runway makes it international.
To ensure the image quality, I had to zoom out slightly so that it wouldn't be too blurry.
Technically, this airport is not only a US space base, but it also has commercial flights.
Fun fact: This airport has the longest runway in all of Greenland.
I wonder this airport is whose homebase in our members.
