Airstrip strikes are a waste of money. They are quick and cheap to repair.
You're confusing "Airfield" and "Runway". One is a strip of asphalt/concrete, the other is a giant collection of expensive stuff like planes, fueling facilities, ammo stores, workshops, etc etc.
Yes.
I did confuse the landing strip with the whole installation hangar and all.
That depends on exactly what you hit. Some things are quick and cheap, some things are expensive and slow. They are often located near each other.
It depends how big and extensive the craters are, there is a reason the UK spent so much effort bombing fastjet airstrips in the Falklands War with a globe spanning Avro Vulcan bomber strikes.

edit there is more controversy over the effectiveness of this than I thought vs. it being a glorified PR program for the air force... which it clearly was to a large degree.
