Runways & Approaches

Camarillo's primary Runway 8/26 measures 6,013 by 150 feet of asphalt, a length that supports the full range of light and midsize jets and most super-midsize aircraft such as the Phenom 300, Citation XLS+, Challenger 350, and Gulfstream G280 at typical charter weights. The secondary Runway 13/31 adds 3,101 feet and provides crosswind relief but is generally used by piston and light aircraft rather than turbojets. With a field elevation of just 77 feet MSL and a mild coastal climate, density-altitude penalties are minimal year-round.

The airport is towered Class D airspace, with the tower and CTAF on 119.1. Instrument access is provided through RNAV (GPS) and VOR approaches plus visual procedures. Heavy jets such as the Gulfstream G650 or Global Express are runway-limited here and require careful performance planning; crews of larger aircraft should run weight, temperature, and balanced-field calculations before committing to KCMA.

Private Aviation Briefing — History, Operations & Planning

Airport Overview

Camarillo Airport (KCMA/CMA) is a public-use general aviation airport owned and operated by Ventura County, located roughly 3 miles west of downtown Camarillo and convenient to the broader Oxnard, Thousand Oaks, and Ventura coastal corridor. The field handles more than 85,000 annual operations and serves a large based-aircraft community alongside business and charter traffic.

Runway Capability

The principal Runway 8/26 offers 6,013 feet of asphalt, sufficient for light, midsize, and most super-midsize business jets at practical loads. The 3,101-foot Runway 13/31 provides crosswind flexibility for smaller aircraft. The low 77-foot elevation and temperate marine climate keep takeoff and landing performance predictable through the year.

Charter Considerations

KCMA is a genuine jet-capable charter field and a practical alternative to busier Van Nuys, about 30 nautical miles east. Aircraft positioning drives availability and cost; The Jet Finder compares operators near Camarillo on repositioning fees, hourly rates, and aircraft category to match the right jet to your mission. Note the on-field FBO is Sun Air Jets, which also operates its own managed fleet.

Safety & Planning

Camarillo is towered Class D airspace with the tower and CTAF on 119.1; outside tower hours, standard CTAF procedures apply. Published RNAV (GPS) and VOR approaches support instrument arrivals, with visual procedures common in the prevailing VFR climate. Heavy jets are runway-limited and require balanced-field and weight-temperature analysis before operating here.

Seasonal & Operational Factors

The Ventura County coast brings frequent marine-layer fog and low stratus, especially on summer mornings, which can drop the field to MVFR or IFR before clearing by midday. Winds are generally moderate. A noise ordinance prohibits all aircraft takeoffs between 0000 and 0500 except military, government, mercy, and emergency flights, and voluntary noise-abatement procedures ask pilots to avoid overflying residential areas to the east and north.

Regional Context

KCMA sits among several Southern California GA fields: Oxnard (KOXR) and NAS Point Mugu (KNTD) are about 6 NM away, Santa Paula (KSZP) about 8 NM, and Van Nuys (KVNY) roughly 30 NM east. For travelers in Ventura County, Camarillo frequently offers shorter ground transfer times and a quieter ramp than the larger Los Angeles-basin airports. There is no on-field U.S. Customs, so international itineraries require clearance elsewhere.
