Airports
Augusta Regional Airport
Augusta is served by Augusta Regional Airport, formerly known as Bush Field (and still referred to as such on highway signs). It is located approximately 5.6 miles (9.0 km) south of downtown, on Doug Barnard Parkway. It is a relatively small airport, especially when compared to more major airports, such as Atlanta's Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport. It has one concrete and one asphalt runway. It opened in 1941 as a training facility for the United States Army Air Corps (USAAC; the predecessor of the United States Air Force). It became the commercial airport for the city in 1950. In 2000, the facility was renamed "Augusta Regional Airport at Bush Field".

Why this record matters
The phrase “open-knowledge reference entry” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 15, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q54933042. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 1941, 1950 and 2000.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
