Upshur County Regional Airport (FAA LID: W22) is a regional, public-use airport approximately 2 nautical miles outside the town of Buckhannon, Upshur County, in the United States. It lies directly along U.S. Route 48, and is also in close proximity to Interstate 79, which runs through neighboring Lewis County. In addition, it is close to U.S. Route 119, which also runs through the county in which the airport is based.
The airport was activated in May 1998, replacing a landing strip that had been in place before then, and has served as a general aviation facility ever since.[3]
