Mission Statement

The EWVRAA will maintain, support and operate the Eastern West Virginia Regional Airport efficiently and effectively. Recognizing that the Airport is an economic driver for the region, the authority will focus its efforts on assuring that the greater Eastern Panhandle has safe and cost-effective access to aviation services. By collaborating with other agencies, the Authority will assure that the Airport and its facilities will be used to enhance and stimulate vibrant business and community development in the region.

Vision Statement

By 2022, the EWVRAA will become a Regional General Aviation airport and will continue to drive economic prosperity in the Hagerstown-Martinsburg, MD-WV Metro Area by: developing a domestic commercial air cargo hub; providing cost-competitive and expanded general aviation services and facilities; and continuing support to the WV Air National Guard’s global air cargo operations.
