The airport houses the Pennsylvania Army National Guard 1-104th Attack Reconnaissance Battalion (Company's HHC,A,C,D, and E) and Det 1, 1-169th Aviation (Med-Evac).

History
The airport was dedicated in 1948, and at one time was served by both Allegheny Airlines and Mohawk. When US Airways ended service to Altoona, Pennsylvania and Pittsburgh, United Express picked it up with service to Altoona and Washington-Dulles.
Finances
Although the airport only offers three commercial flights and has very little other activity, as of April 2009, the airport had received almost $200 million in federal subsidies. That funding has not been used to subsidize the facility’s commercial, corporate and general aviation operations, including the terminal. Those funds have been used to construct a concrete reinforced runway for military purposes and to build military installations located near and around the airport proper. The airport is in the bottom 28% of all facilities receiving EAS funding. In 2004, an $8 million air traffic radar system was installed at the airport, but as of April 2009, it has never been used.
