One thing to consider is adding some sort of subsidiary tags, such as suggested, add closed to the name, but leave the main aeroway tagged for a few years. If an airport suddenly disappears from normal map rendering there is a natural assumption by map users that OpenStreetMap is in error. I have no strong views on the "correctness" of that, but it is pragmatic.

The wiki page http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Disused would favor
disused:aeroway=aerodrome

Notes 1) Were there an "objectnote:en=" feature meant for display in
map clients, this would be a good addition also.

Note 2) While not relevant here, the OSM lifecycle tags are missing a
number of steps: "broken when last observed" is
the lifecycle stage I most frequently want to map.  There's also
"under construction but not finished when last observed".
