Venceslo University Airfield, better known by its IATA code UAV, was a small regional airfield that serviced Venceslo and Venceslo University. It was built predominantly by time2makemymove and was run by the Venceslo University O'Bryant School of Aeronautics, whose school location was across the street from the terminal. There were eight aircraft gates and two helipads built before it was closed down on February 10, 2018.
Due to Venceslo reaching Governor, time2makemymove began construction on a new airport for the city of Venceslo and it was announced that Venceslo University Airfield would be demolished in early February. All flights from the airfield were consequently moved to concourse A of Venceslo-Fifth Ward International Airport.
The airfield was completely demolished in Spring 2018. In its place, a park (UAV PARK), and two buildings for Venceslo University (Thimbleman Building and Venceslo Central Hospital) were built. Venceslo Central Hospital in particular adaptively reused part of the terminal building and parking garage for its design.
UAV PARK still has the markings for the old airfield runway engraved either in the dirt or on the pathways, recognizing the airfield's service to the city. The Park has since become a Venceslo Historical Landmark.
The following was the final list of gates before the airfield was closed down and all the flights were moved to Venceslo-Fifth Ward International Airport:
