The Barnesville-Bradfield Airport came into existence in 1969 as a result of the work and vision of the late Gibson and John Bradfield. The Barnesville-Bradfield Airport is owned and operated by the Belmont County Regional Airport authority and is the only publicly owned airport in Belmont County. From the onset, the airport has been managed voluntarily by Clyde “Sheets” Wittenbrook who owns and o

perates an FFA approved repair shop, Whittenbrook Flying Service, at the Airport. Mr. Wittenbrook tends to the day to day operation matters of the airport and provides the snow removal in the event of poor weather. Since 2001, the airport has seen a few major improvements to the facility with the financial grant assistance of the Federal Aviation Administration and the Ohio Department of Transportation Division of Aviation. Through the help of these agencies, the airport has prepared a layout plan for future development, installed a perimeter fence, completed drainage improvements, constructed a paved access road, provided an aircraft tie down area, acquired a few additional parcels of land for growth, provided runway crack repair and sealing, rehabilitated a concrete apron off the taxi way, upgraded vault room electrical components, purchased new snow removal equipment, and constructionof an equipment storage and maintenance building. Total improvements of over 2 million dollars over the past 10 years have been realized. In December 2007, the Belmont County Commissioners along with the village of Barnesville collaborated on the formation of the Belmont County Regional Airport Authority. The BCRAA is a voluntary Board dedicated to oversee the operation and future developement and growth of the airport. The BCRAA met for the first time on April 21, 2008
