message: The island collects a franchise fee, of sorts, from all businesses, and while it is high for some, it's simple and uncomplicated, and it's a very desirable structure for banks.  Visiting cruise ships are charged at least $15 US Dollars for each passenger and incoming flights, $25 a head.  I do not have specific citing sufficient to post this outside of the talk section.  It could be noted that petroleum refineries are prohibited and all fuel oils are 'ready to use' when brought to the island.   They gained their independence in 1973 and retain the photo of the British queen on the dollar bill which is chained to the US dollar, and it is worth $1.20 in US currency.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.97.87.243 (talk) 00:13, 5 December 2014 (UTC)

That can be found north of central George Town on the way to West Bay (19°20'02.1"N, 81°22'19.5"W), and looks distinctly like an airport development. Is it a disused airport, or perhaps an abortive airport project? You can also see straight along what would seem to be a taxiway on Google StreetView:

...although it is quite clear that it could not be used as such in its current condition. I have tried various searches online to find out what this place is or was, but can find nothing. All airport references to Grand Cayman mention only Owen Roberts International Airport. Is it some kind of dirty secret or something? If anybody knows what it is, I think it would be a good idea to include it in Grand Cayman's aviation history — if indeed it is/was and airfield of some kind.Kelisi (talk) 20:53, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you. If it is housing, as you say, it would make sense of that otherwise thoroughly useless roundabout at the west end that seems to link to the "taxiway". It would, however, become useful if a new neighbourhood were built there. The units don't seem to be being advertised for sale yet. Well, I was going to put "Disused Airport" or something on the Grand Cayman map, but... Nevertheless, that map is about to be updated with a number of new labels. I do wish that I could find out the name of that bay south of Barker's National Park, though. No source names it. Kelisi (talk) 04:29, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
