Beech River Regional Airport (ICAO: KPVE, FAA LID: PVE) is a public-use airport in Henderson County, Tennessee, United States. It is located five nautical miles (5.8 mi; 9.3 km) northwest of the central business district of Parsons, a city in Decatur County.
The airport opened in 2006 and is owned by Beech River Regional Airport Authority, representing the cities of Lexington and Parsons, the counties of Henderson and Decatur, and the state of Tennessee. It is included in the FAA's National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a general aviation facility.
