Greater Cumberland Regional Airport (IATA: CBE, ICAO: KCBE, FAA LID: CBE) is a public airport located in the town of Wiley Ford (population 1,095) in Mineral County, West Virginia. It is two miles (3 km) south of the larger city of Cumberland (population 21,518) in Allegany County, Maryland. Although the airport is located in the Potomac Highlands of West Virginia, the FAA lists this as a Maryland airport.
The airport has not had commercial service from a major airline since US Airways Express carrier Air Midwest left in September 2001.
Located on the second level of the airport terminal is the Cohongaronta Gallery (Cohongaronta being a Shawnee name for the Potomac River). It contains an array of historical displays pertaining to the history of the Potomac Highlands area. The centerpiece of the gallery is a 40% scaled replica of the Wright Brothers 1903 Wright Flyer that set the stage for aerial transportation. A 70-foot-long (21 m) time line highlights pertinent dates and events for the Potomac Highlands region. The gallery is open to the public during terminal business hours. Facilities and aircraft
