About MOV Aviation
MOV Aviation is a full-service FBO at Mid-Ohio Valley Regional Airport in Parkersburg, West Virginia, located on the North Ramp just 100 feet from the main terminal. The two-story FBO building provides two pilot lounge areas with complimentary coffee, and the facility can handle aircraft of nearly any size on its accessible general aviation ramp. Multiple hangars are available, including a heated hangar with space for aircraft with tail heights up to 17 feet. The FBO team handles parking, fueling, baggage and cargo loading, and towing services. Free short-term and long-term parking is available at the terminal year-round, which is a small but meaningful convenience at an airport of this size. Rental cars and cab services are accessible for ground transportation. One of the more distinctive amenities is Jerry's Fly Away Kitchen, an on-site restaurant open to passengers and the public that serves hot breakfast, lunch, and dinner with local favorites. The restaurant operates Tuesday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM, Saturday from 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM, and Sunday from 11:00 AM to 2:00 PM, and offers views of the airfield. Mid-Ohio Valley Regional sits along the Ohio River in northwestern West Virginia, serving Parkersburg and the surrounding chemical and natural gas industry corridor. The airport's 7,014-foot primary runway accommodates midsize jets comfortably. Parkersburg's Blennerhassett Island Historical State Park, accessible by sternwheeler from downtown, is a unique local attraction. The area's economy is closely tied to the petrochemical industry and natural gas extraction in the Marcellus and Utica shale formations, which drives much of the business aviation traffic through the facility. For passengers visiting the Mid-Ohio Valley on industrial business, MOV Aviation provides reliable, friendly service at a facility that reflects the region's practical, welcoming character.
