Does anyone recognise this airport.

Bottom row middle pic
has a single runway 17/35 looks to be about 6000' long, has parallel taxiways on both sides and aprons on both sides which is quite unusual. The airport sits next to a freeway. By the lush vegetation looks like Virginia or an eastern state.

Its a close match but not the one.
Leesburg has only 1 parallel taxiway.
Reason I', asking is my misus has made the Cessna pic my wall paper so i;m staring at it all day and its bugging me not knowing where it is.

the first airport I checked was charlottesville (KCHO)...but the runway came up 21/3.
my old computer...proving that I am really a cheap airline pilot, won't display the picture...if it could be posted in another way it might help me anyway.
roanoke and manassas come to mind but I haven't checked.

Roanoke has a crossing runway and Manassas has a parallel runway so not them.
7Stroke, it's got non-precision approach markings so scratch everything with an ILS. The taxiways are like [ ] along each side with 3 crossing taxiways going straight across towards the north end where the ramps are.

KOWP, Sand Springs, Oklahoma. (I know, looks like too many trees. Why they are there on a X photo-shoot is another question; not far from Wichita, perhaps?)

It's about 110 nm. I haven't a clue; it may be that a really good photographer works out of there.
