Upper Cumberland Regional Airport is a public use airport located adjacent to Tennessee State Route 111 approximately 8.5 nautical miles (15.7 km) south of the central business district of Cookeville and 9 nautical miles (17 km) northwest of the central business district of Sparta. Owned by the Upper Cumberland Airport Authority, which comprises the Cities of Cookeville and Sparta and the governments of White County and Putnam County, it is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a general aviation facility.[2]

Although many U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned SRB by the FAA but has no designation from the IATA (which assigned SRB to Santa Rosa Airport in Santa Rosa, Beni, Bolivia).[3] [4]
