Garrett County Airport Adds Crew Car for Visiting Pilots

Visiting pilots flying into Garrett County Airport now have access to a crew car, thanks to a vehicle donation from the Garrett County Development Corporation.

Official response and confirmed impact

The crew car provides pilots with temporary local transportation while their aircraft is at the airport.

“We appreciate the Garrett County Development Corporation for making this resource possible,” said Adison Wyer, Garrett County Airport Manager.

“Having transportation available once a pilot lands makes it easier for them to get into the community, whether they are here for a meeting, a meal, supplies or to spend some time in Garrett County.”

The vehicle comes after a multi-year effort to secure a pilot-use transportation option and provides another connection between Garrett County Airport and the surrounding community.

For visiting pilots, that means easier access to local businesses, restaurants, attractions and services during their stay.

The Garrett County Development Corporation supports economic and community development initiatives that strengthen Garrett County.

Incident background

The addition addresses a frequent request from visiting pilots, with airport staff receiving approximately two to three inquiries each week about ground transportation.
