Milton Field is a former airfield located along the Rivanna River, east of Charlottesville. The property was purchased by the University of Virginia in the 1930's, and was operational airfield from 1940 until the early 1970's. In subsequent years the University of Virginia has repurposed the property for a variety of academic and administrative uses.[1] [2] [3] The Rivanna Radio Control Club also uses the property for model aircraft flights.[4] [5]
