The Grant County Airport is located near the industrial park in Petersburg, WV just off of Johnson Run Road. It provides access in and out of the area for small commuter planes and jets for personal and business purposes. This facility is a very viable part of the community and surrounding area. Most recently a pavilion and tent camping area has been added for events and use by the Civil Air Patrol performing training and exercises. The airport boasts a 5000' paved runway with automated weather reporting and instrument landing capability. The Grant County Airport is the only general aviation facility in the region with a lighted runway.

A local active Civil Air Patrol Squadron operates out of the Grant County Airport. For information in joining contact: Roy Martin, Commander at 304-257-1707 or visit the website at www.phcscap.org. This group is composed of cadets and seniors interested in aviation as well as search and rescue.
