Couldn't prod since one had been removed before under the mistaken impression "We have a low inclusion bar for train stations, probably also for small airports". This isn't an airport with facilities for public access or regular flights, it's some rich person's private property with a strip of clear field on which their small private planes can land. No significant coverage; see also essay Wikipedia:WikiProject_Airports/Notability#Private_airports_tend_not_to_be_notable_on_their_own Reywas92^Talk 02:42, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Some rich person's airstrip isn't worth inclusion unless it meets GNG, which this clearly does not. Trainsandotherthings (talk) 02:50, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Nothing found to satisfy WP:GEOFEAT or WP:GNG. The airfield gets incidental mention in local news media for a 2017 crash there, but nothing substantial about the facility. • Gene93k (talk) 04:00, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - Fails to meet notability guidelines. Even the local newspapers have few usable results, mostly revolving around an annual Kiwanis Club event. Sounder Bruce 04:26, 8 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I have to admit I also question whether every train stop in the middle of no where is notable, but that is another issue for another time. This is more akin to most roads not being notable, but most roads have far more use than this private airstip gets.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:04, 11 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Clearly not notable. Private airstrips are not and should not be treated like regular airports. Like what is noted on the notability guidelines on airports, private airstrips have higher bar on notability than other airports. SunDawn talk 07:49, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
