Hagerstown Regional Airport (IATA: HGR, ICAO: KHGR, FAA LID: HGR), also known as Richard A. Henson Field, is a county-owned public-use airport in Washington County, Maryland, United States. It is located four nautical miles (7 km) north of the central business district of Hagerstown, about a half mile from the Maryland/Pennsylvania border. The airport is in Western Maryland off of Interstate 81 and U.S. Route 11, not far from Northern Virginia, South Central Pennsylvania, and the Eastern Panhandle of West Virginia.
This airport is included in the FAA's National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2009–2013, which categorized it as commercial service - non-primary. It is served by one commercial airline which is subsidized by the Essential Air Service program. History
The airfield opened in 1928 on 60 acres (24 ha) of farmland purchased by the Kreider-Reisner Aircraft Company. It was purchased by the City of Hagerstown in 1933.
The facility was named Washington County Regional Airport in 1981, when ownership was transferred from the City of Hagerstown to Washington County. In 1998, the county renamed it Hagerstown Regional Airport - Richard A. Henson Field.
US Airways Express served Hagerstown Regional for quite some time. The last discontinued destination from HGR was Pittsburgh International Airport. Due to low ridership and an expired federal subsidy, the airline cancelled service in September 2007. The airport was without an airline for a just over a year until the advent of Allegiant Air which ended its service in July 2010.
Allegiant Air flew from HGR to Orlando Sanford International Airport with two departures on Friday and two arrivals on Monday. The airline started commercial service on 14 November 2008. The airline used the McDonnell Douglas MD-82/MD-83 jet on this route. Scheduled service ended on July 19, 2010.

The pilot was able to land on Runway 27 and all five people onboard deplaned within minutes. Nobody was hurt. Several fire departments around the Tri-State area responded to the incident.
On 23 July 2009, a Robinson R-44 helicopter crashed shortly after taking off from Hagerstown Regional Airport.
