Cairns AAF (Fort Rucker) Air Field

Cairns AAF (Fort Rucker) Air Field (KOZR) is a medium airport in Fort Rucker/Ozark, AL. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code KOZR or IATA code OZR. It sits in North America.

Cairns AAF (Fort Rucker) Air Field is a regional airport primarily serving general aviation, charter, and corporate flight departments. The 5,025-foot runway means it is well-suited as a dedicated bizjet field, free from airline scheduling pressure.

The longest runway measures 5,025 ft (1,532 m), a light-jet-class field. Representative aircraft that operate comfortably here include the Phenom 300, Citation CJ4, and Learjet 75. In practice this limits operations to light jets, turboprops, and short-field-capable aircraft.

Cairns AAF (Fort Rucker) Air Field sits near sea level at 301 ft.

Local operations run on America/Chicago. Without scheduled airline traffic, the field tends to be quieter and more flexible for charter and corporate operations — a useful characteristic for early morning, late night, or short-notice flights that would be impractical at a hub.

SkyAccess inventory for KOZR updates continuously as operators publish new empty legs and one-way repositioning trips. Pricing on each leg is available with a free account, and an inventory alert will email you the moment a leg appears on the route you care about.

Regional fields like KOZR are a meaningful share of US private aviation — closer to the trip's actual origin or destination than the nearest major hub, with shorter ramp-to-cabin times that are the main reason owners and brokers prefer them.

Cairns Army Airfield is a military airport forming a part of Fort Rucker, in Dale County, Alabama, USA, and is owned by the United States Army. The airfield is south of the town of Daleville, which sits between it and the main post.
