#2 – From WV NEWS –   The operations of North Central West Virginia Airport will transition to a new, multimillion terminal building in just a few months.

The state-of-the-art, 50,000-square-foot facility is the result of seven years of planning and the support of numerous stakeholders, said Harrison County Commissioner David Hinkle, who also serves as president of the Benedum Airport Authority — the airport’s governing board.

The facility features an expanded taxiway, an enlarged parking lot and is surrounded by ample build-ready land for future projects. It is slated to open to the public this summer.

“We’re going to be able to handle 100,000 passengers,” Hinkle said. “We have tried to build for the future, and I think we’ve done a great job at it.”
