Just because an airport is 'closed' does not mean the runways no longer exist... The Gimli Glider incident comes to mind. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gimli_Glider. Even if the runways are removed and built over, often outlines are visible from the air for years after the airport is removed. See http://www.airfields-freeman.com/ for some examples.
