Reply to @prattsoplenty: Thanks - I've changed the status of the airport to show that it's operational, and added a "private" tag.

Reply to @david: I think it is just closed to the public. The owner has a very nice collection of airplanes including a couple of Harvards, a Waco bi-plane and others that he keeps there.

Reply to @prattsoplenty: Is this no longer in use, or is it just closed to the public?
