Westminster airport began on a small farm field in a community along an
old American Indian
trail. The town was never in the direct path of commerce or early settlement, but it provided an abundance of needed local commodities;
farm produce, livestock from hundreds-of-acres crops, for a growing Baltimore
metropolitan area. Eventually the airport was the center of its own growing
community -
Carroll County is now a major supplier
of local and regional produce.
A small
airfield in a farmer's pastures soon it was dedicated by the Mayor of
Westminster as a viable link to a growing nation, but little did anyone
believe World conflict would push its development in a completely
different directions. It was the onset of a World War when it first served
the military to transport troops and later to forward supplies across both
the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean.
Decades
later in a time of peace, local and state transportation authorities recognized the airport as a
vital link for commerce in the region. To honor those involved in the
revitalization, the airport was
renamed Carroll County Regional Airport, and then later dedicated to Jack B.
Poage - aviator and FBO owner.
Air travel
changed dramatically since 2001, improving slightly by 2003. The airport
executives matched this upward trend with some forward-looking planning
and county improvements to the regional airport. Both population and
economic development, with an emphasis on fast and reliable modals of
transportation, require an airport capable of supporting a diverse
customer base. Now serving as a major connecting hub for numerous eastern
destinations, its role increases each year as passengers, pilots and cargo
carriers pass though the National Capital and Baltimore Regional areas.
You will
still find generations of aviation at
