Note that the runway designations end in "T" because they're based on true rather than magnetic headings; that's standard for airports in the high Arctic.
Hamilton Municipal Airport (KMNZ) has the FAA LID "MNZ", identical to this airport's IATA code, which confuses flight-tracking sites. Note that "HEF" is the FAA LID for Manassas Regional, but *not* the IATA code.
Manassas Regional Airport (KHEF) has the IATA code MNZ, which is identical to the FAA LID for this airport (the FAA LID for Manassas is HEF). This confuses most flight-tracking sites.
This multimillion dollar facility never took off. See Wikipedia article for one of the most ill-fated military aviation facilities in American history.
As of January 1st, 2025, the airport is permanently closed. Nothing says honoring history like paving over the past. May the new owners fail miserably and never need to travel anywhere by air.
Reply to @Fadamor: Per your problem report: "The only thing remaining of the runway are broken bits of asphalt. Pilots wishing to fly into Raton, NM should use KRTN about 8 miles to the south of the former NM67."
KHEF is undergoing a major renovation on the West Ramp and in the future for the East Ramp. The Dulles Aviation Building and the neighboring hangar have been razed. The current plan is to upgrade the West Apron for more turbine services. Additionally, the Airport Management are working with the FAA to get scheduled passenger service using narrow-body aircraft (B737, A320, etc.) Currently those plans aren't expected to bear fruit for five years or so.
This airstrip used to provide service to the La Mesa Park (Horse) Racetrack that was located just across the street to the north. The racetrack and airstrip operated from 1946 to 1992.
The airport is on a bluff, much hgher the the surrounding terrain. The approach end of runway 32 is the most dramatic example of the land elevation difference.
This is the most northern of the northern Maine triangle of scenic airports. Caribou and historical Loring being the other 2.

Super nice. I called a day or two ahead and Monica saved us a car. the lineguys were on top of their game and had us chocked and strapped down almost before we were out. My son and I went to see the UP 4014 Big Boy steam engine.
Juancho Y. Irausquin International Airport has a 400 metre runway! It is considered the shortest commercial runway in the world and has been updated at least thrice.
My first flight here was nothing short of amazing. Mr. Swank was very hospitable and it's only one of three Recreational Aviation Foundation (RAF) airports in Ohio!
Reply to @david: Unfortunately, after 71 years of operation at the Picton Airport, the lease between the new owners and the Prince Edward Flying Club was not renewed. The Club was required to vacate the clubhouse and hangar by the end of June 2024. The new owners of the airport have long-term plans that include parks, housing, and further business and event-hosting development; the airport is not included in those long-term plans. By the end of 2024, it is expected that the airport will be permanently closed with the 3 runways to be removed.
