I was travelling via Moscow to Gelendhzik and discover a very brand new, but also very small airport - somehow funny - with no luggage belt. When I left, one aircraft to St. Petersburg was delayed and due to this, the "terminal" completely overcrowded...I liked it. reisen.cc

Reply to @Chally: Thanks for the information. All the TAF and METAR information on OurAirports currently comes from a free US government source -- it's complete for Canada, the US, and Western Europe, as far as I can tell, but likely misses some reports from smaller stations elsewhere.

Metar and Taf are only available from Russian Met office

Be aware that the coordinates indicated in the approach plates are wrong by about 300ft.

This is still an oddment from the cold war times.

Non russian aircrafts must have a navigator on board. Use the parking stands on the south side of the apron because the surface load bearing capacity.

This is the airport where a Polish Air Force TU-154 crashed on 10 April 2010, killing the Polish president and other senior government officials:

Does not exist any more. Was used mostly for agricultural purposes and in summer time for local passenger service (to the Black Sea shore usually) with small airplanes (12 or 5 seaters). That was good for people but untenable financially. Now most of the land is being rented out or sold to private enterprises to build private residences or for workshops etc.

According to Wikipedia this strip is served by Yakutia- and Polar Airlines

Reply to @Jan: Thanks for the help. I've changed the status to closed.

Several signs...Look close and you'll see markings on the asphalt on the west side near the yellow boxes. There is a fence/wall covering most of the old runway. And it appears they have made a go cart track on the old apron.

Yes, Logovushka Airfield, used by Kurgan Aviation club. Updated.

Seems its used for GA. Maybe for parachuting?

No longer an air base though so maybe change name?

English Wikipedia. Search for Chaykovsky and pick the one in Perm Krai

I couldn't find the article in the English Wikipedia -- is it in the Russian one?

Thanks for the info. If anyone finds out the status, please let us know.

Reply to @david: Was supposed to be a question mark after Closed in title. Don't know if it is completely closed, but it is no longer used for any mil- or private regular flights.

Is the runway ever used (say, to fly in new aircraft for display), or is it completely shut down?

This is now used for the Central Air Force Museum

Yes, it was mistake, this airport has no English ICAO.

The pavement looks rough but intact, and although the markings have worn off, nothing's been built on or close to the runway. Is there any way to confirm the airport's status?

Unless this code exist in official ICAO database I think it should be changed to URRA. The Russian code is УРРЯ, which would translate to URRYA.

Reason for this is that Zavetnoe about 100 miles SE has УРРЫ which translates directly to URRY.

I don't know enough about drag racing to know what to look for in the satellite pic. Certainly, I don't see proper runway markings.

Based on Google Earth image this airport appear to be used for drag racing now.

Probably closed.
