146 on the Pennsylvania Turnpike. Go
North on I-99 and get off at the
Osterburg/St. Clairsville Exit. Follow
869 West until you come to a Covered
Bridge. Make a left by the Covered
Bridge Rd - you should see an airport
sign. then go 7/10 of a mile.
Turn right on Bowser Rd. there will be
an airport sign. The airport is 4/10
of a mile up the road on left (another
sign). There is a long blacktop
driveway and a flag in the field.
There is also a modular home directly
across from the runway, so if you've
passed it, you've gone too far!
If you are coming from the Johnstown
area, after coming off Pleasantville
Mt.(Rt.56E) go through the light. Keep
going until you pass "The Cow," an ice
cream shoppe, and take the very first
road to the left - look for airport
sign - this will be Belles Road. Keep
going until you come to a church, go
past the church (4/10) mile. At the
"T" intersection, make a right. Follow
the signs that say "Airpark." There is
an Airport sign on the telephone pole
at the next intersection after you
pass the brick farm house. Make a left
there. Go another mile or so until you
come to the first blacktop road to
your left. Follow the airport sign.
Follow the directions above on how to
finish getting to the airport.
If coming from Altoona, go South on
I-99, and get off on 869 West. Follow
869 West (4 mile) until the Covered
Bridge. Follow airport signs that will
lead you to the airport.
