  "connection_tips": "Grant County Airport (PGC) serves the city of Petersburg and the Potomac Highlands of West Virginia. It handles NO scheduled commercial airline flights but is a major hub for general aviation and corporate charters. Ground transport is limited; car rentals must be pre-arranged for delivery from town (approx.\n\n5 minutes away). Local taxis can be called from Petersburg but do not wait at the airfield. A unique tip: the airport is world-famous among glider pilots due to the unique mountain wave conditions; check for high glider activity in the pattern during spring and autumn The glider traffic is what makes the airport interesting, and that means pilots and visitors should think about soaring conditions as part of the arrival, not an afterthought.\n\nThe facility offers pilot lounges, Wi-Fi, and 24-hour self-serve fuel. If you need a commercial connection, fly to Dulles (IAD) or Morgantown (MGW), both approximately 2 hours away For travelers who actually need the town rather than the airfield, the advantage is a short hop into Petersburg without committing to a larger regional airport. A glider-aware briefing matters here, because soaring conditions can change the arrival pattern for pilots and visitors alike on windy days in spring too.",

  "terminal_info": "Grant County Airport (PGC), designated by the FAA as W99, is a primary general aviation facility serving the city of Petersburg and the Potomac Highlands region of West Virginia. The airport features a functional passenger terminal and Fixed-Base Operator (FBO) facility currently managed by Stahl Flying Service, Inc. It acts as a critical infrastructure link for the region, providing a professional base for flight operations, aircraft maintenance, and essential search-and-rescue missions for the surrounding mountainous terrain.\n\nThe terminal infrastructure provides a variety of specialized amenities for travelers and flight crews, including a comfortable pilot lounge with relaxed seating, clean restroom facilities, and a dedicated flight planning area with computerized weather briefing stations. A unique feature of the airfield is its 'Fly and Tie' campground, which allows private pilots to park their aircraft directly on the field and utilize maintained camping grounds equipped with on-site showers and restroom facilities. This makes the airport a popular destination for recreational pilots exploring nearby attractions like Seneca Rocks and the Monongahela National Forest.\n\nTechnical services at the field are comprehensive, featuring 24-hour self-service fueling for 100LL Avgas and Jet A fuel via a secure credit card system. The airport features a single 5,000-foot asphalt runway (13/31) situated at an elevation of 963 feet, uniquely positioned to provide optimal 'lift' conditions for glider and soaring operations due to the adjacent Cave Mountain. Ground transportation is well-supported by local taxi services and pre-arranged car rentals, providing a quick 5 to 10-minute link to the business districts and historic sites of central Petersburg.",
