Culpeper airport (CJR) is one of the outstanding general aviation airports in Virginia. Now home to 160 aircraft, with a 5,000 foot runway and a flourishing charter service, CJR has recently acquired more acreage to continue the expansion that has brought it to first place in non-towered airports in VA in a number of categories. These range from airport/tourist visitor spending to general aviation movements serving 23,000 passengers per year.
