Saw fix me tag on it when this change was added. No, it is not disused at all. Kaitseliit is using it, Kaitsevägi is using it for training all year round. This area maybe could be changed to military usage but it is definetly not abandoned or disused.

Thanks! But are they using _for_aviation_ ? checked, and could not even find it any longer in the AIP nor in the VFR guide, so it would seem that _as_an_aerodrome_ it is more disused than ever.

No, it is not used for aviation per se altho I know at least one trial of landing on it in modern times few years ago which ended not so well for the plane...

Thanks again, I already updated the entry. Observe that I also replaced "military=yes" by the standard "landuse=military", that will have its effect upon rendering.
Would you have more details about the trial of landing that ended "not so well"?

Yes, searched for it a little. Its estonian language but references I think could be found even more so.

Probably myay be to remove all tags altogether, since the object does not exist.
32019-03-11 20:11jan_olieslagers The airfield is mentioned in several lists, for example maps.aopa.ru, therefore it is not a good idea to remove it entirely. Others may, in good faith, re-add it.
