Comment Maybe merge into Riddells Creek? Alvaldi (talk) 19:14, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Unpaved airstrips are not notable for existing as a place to land unless there's significant coverage about them, which is often not the case for private fields of grass. There's nothing to say at the town article, it's not for public use and these are not uncommon. Reywas92^Talk 20:02, 24 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Reywas92 according to https://www.airsports.net/RiddellAirfield/ there is one sealed main runway of 880 metres. However that source does not appear to be independent of the subject. TarnishedPath^talk 07:46, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The article's coordinates are wrong (35S instead of 37S). If this is a legitimate paved airfield I don't have as strong an argument for deletion or against merging. Reywas92^Talk 14:50, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
