re: Website find

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.

Reply to @ReefShore316: I couldn’t 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?

Brief History

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.

The largest plane seen here was a Twin otter that flew to Flying bone fish many times.

First Comment

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, β€œI’ve been here, I’ve saw a few caravan and 185 skywagon Seaplanes, I also saw a twin otter.”

The Former Jernsland STOLport was a airport used for dusting purposes and Air tractors. It was a private airport meaning it needed permisiΓ³n before Landing. My grand ancestor landed his Tri pacer here.

Experience at Jeffrey’s Takeoff Field

My friend got his home base at this airport he found with the captions: PAVED, 1987x153 FEET, NEED EXPIRIENCE FOR LANDING UNDER 2000 FEET. He told me that he is gonna start flying there with his Cessna 160 and He was so obsessed that he flew there every day from Mac’s field with me. Todally a charm.

Closure Is simple

The cause on why this field is closed because municipalities built houses over the runway. My friend landed here in 2019. Best Reason to hate municipal figures.

Brief History

The full history of this airport is available at Paul Freeman’s Abandoned & Little-Known Airfields website.

The old Tamiami Airport was established around 1947, and held the Kendall Flying Club.

It was replaced by the newer Tamiami Airport in 1967, and was depicted as being an abandoned airport by 1968.

Brief History

Mjd Airport was apparently activated in October 1994 and was privately-owned by Martin J. Dureiko, according to AirNav. It was not depicted in a 1988 topographic map of Miami, and was depicted in a 2012 topographic map. There is a coverage gap of the area between 1988 and 2012. By 2009, the airstrip appeared derelict and disused, with multiple obstructions piling up over the years.

Brief History

Holley Landing Strip was also known as Holley Dusting Field. It did not appear in a 1982 topographic map of Homestead, but it did appear in a 1988 topographic map. There are no maps of the area between 1982 and 1988 that are available on USGS, indicating that the airstrip was established between 1982-88. The airfield likely closed between 2007 and 2009, as a plantation appeared on the runway by then. It was still depicted in 2012, and did not appear from the 2015 onwards.

Unsanctioned airfield

John Toole Jr., the owner of Toole's Training Center, used this horse race track as an airfield for a J5 Cub in 2015, which prompted the Davie city council to ban private airfields in the city. The pilot attempted a campaign for city council as a result. Toole ultimately lost his life in a 2020 crash near Orange Springs while trying to land an Aero Commander 100 Darter Commander on an unlit grass strip (FD02 Patch o Blue) at night.

Used for 1992 Landing of Mickey Mouse One

Upon the retirement of Walt Disney's private plane Mickey Mouse One (Grumman Gulfsream I N234MM) in 1992, it landed here to be displayed at the adjacent MGM (now Hollywood Studios), as the old Walt Disney World Airport to the north had been blocked off by the construction of the monorail system. Further use of the site for aviation purposes has been permanently precluded by the No Fly Zone orders in place since 2001.

Walt Disney World / Lake Buena Vista STOLport -- still here,

One of the advantages of being a Walt Disney World Cast Member was being able to access the old airport grounds. The runway is still in use, but not for aviation; it's a vehicle storage facility for Disney. You'll have to go to Castaway Cay to find an active airport on Disney property nowadays (2020).

Beautiful new FBO

Nice lunch spot

Good on airport restaurant

Controllers are great but...

At KORL... Due to Class B ceiling above and catering to the executive jets, a regular joe can wait at the end of the runway or be sent on a cross country while in the pattern just to accommodate a biz jet that hasn't yet made the IAF. It wastes tons of time. Neither MCO or SFB are convenient for quick business trips.

One day I was cleared to land same time a student was right below me on instruments. Tower was not aware. Thanks for the guy behind me turning base.

Shoutout to Owner! :D

Seeing your seaplane in the sky always brightens my day! As an engineering student/rusty private pilot who doesn't get to fly as often as she likes, I love to see that the GA community is as strong as ever.
