About this route:
A direct, nonstop flight between Oxnard Airport (OXR), Oxnard, California, United States and Clayton Municipal Airpark (CAO), Clayton, New Mexico, United States would travel a Great Circle distance of 917 miles (or 1,476 kilometers).
A Great Circle is the shortest distance between 2 points on a sphere. Because most world maps are flat (but the Earth is round), the route of the shortest distance between 2 points on the Earth will often appear curved when viewed on a flat map, especially for long distances. If you were to simply draw a straight line on a flat map and measure a very long distance, it would likely be much further than if you were to lay a string between those two points on a globe. Because of the relatively short distance between Oxnard Airport and Clayton Municipal Airpark, the route shown on this map most likely still appears to be a straight line.

Facts about Oxnard Airport (OXR):
- Oxnard Airport is a county owned, public airport a mile west of downtown Oxnard, in Ventura County, California.
- In late 1941, the airport was assigned to the U.S.
- In addition to being known as "Oxnard Airport", another name for OXR is "Ventura County Army Airfield".
- Because of Oxnard Airport's relatively low elevation of 45 feet, planes can take off or land at Oxnard Airport at a lower air speed than at airports located at a higher elevation. This is because the air density is higher closer to sea level than it would otherwise be at higher elevations.
- Oxnard Airport (OXR) currently has only 1 runway.
- The closest airport to Oxnard Airport (OXR) is Naval Air Station Point Mugu (NTD), which is located only 7 miles (12 kilometers) SE of OXR.
- The furthest airport from Oxnard Airport (OXR) is Pierrefonds Airport (ZSE), which is located 11,489 miles (18,489 kilometers) away in Saint-Pierre, Réunion.
