El Jadida Airport

Defunct airport in Morocco

El Jadida Airport (ICAO: GMMJ) was an airport serving the city of El Jadida, Morocco.[1]

Google Earth Historical Imagery from 4/28/2002 shows a 1,524 metres (5,000 ft) grass runway 04/22. 07/13/2005 image shows a highway cut through, and the current satellite image[2] shows the area covered with streets and apartment blocks.

The surface of the airport measured 92ha and was transformed in 2008 into a real-estate development project by the firm CGI (subsidiary of the CDG fund) and a Marjane hypermarket was opened there in 2013.[3]
