A man who's been at the helm of the Charleston, WV airport shared his wisdom with the folks at the Mid-Ohio Valley Regional Airport Thursday evening.

He says they've got lots of opportunity to grow along with the community.

Ed Hill, Chairman of the Yeager Airport Authority outlined how the Charleston Airport has turned around from threats of closure, to expansion and success.

Hill believes executives looking to expand or relocate are impressed by modern terminal facility and general aviation facilities.

He suggests that a modern face lift can help the airport in the general aviation area and help the community grow together with the airport.

Hill also recommends placing a county commissioner on the Airport Board so there is a shared close economic bond.
