The use of smaller GA airports for business and other travel is likely to accelerate as a result of the newest aircraft technology. The Very Light Jet (VLJ or micro-jet) is a potential replacement for older twin engine and turbo prop aircraft which began to disappear from the market in the mid-1980s. This new breed of business aircraft costs 50 percent less than the existing turbine business aircraft, has a ceiling in excess of 40,000 feet, is fuel efficient, and requires significantly less runway. They are quieter than conventional jet aircraft and more of the state’s existing runways will be able to accommodate them compared to existing jet aircraft. The VLJ is being touted as perfect for air taxi service. There are currently 15 manufacturers including Eclipse, Cessna and Piper. Honda is gearing up to produce their own version of the VLJ. The aircraft are just starting to enter the marketplace and many airport owners are still unfamiliar with their operational requirements and how to accommodate them


Challenges to Preservation/Expansion 
Many of New Jersey's GA airports remain under the threat of closure, despite being a vital component of the state’s integrated multi-modal transportation system. The most vulnerable are the state's 30 privately owned airports. There has been a 50-year history of these airports being converted to non-aviation uses. New Jersey has the highest percentage (60 percent) of privately owned public use airports in the nation. 
NJDOT and its Division of Aeronautics have been very active since the 1990s in working to preserve public use airports.  This has been accomplished by outright purchase, the purchase of development rights, and by stipulations in Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) grants obligating airports to remain open for public use. In all, eight airports, home base to over 800 aircraft, have been preserved through these efforts. In addition there are nine airports in various stages of negotiation with the state. This latter group serves as base to nearly 900 aircraft.2 In recognition of the state’s work in this area, the national Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) have stated, “New Jersey has become, far and away, the national model for developing and implementing policies and practices to help preserve and protect the general aviation infrastructure.”
