Comment by an Anonymous Flier on Gelendzhik Airport, Russia:

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.

Old Soviet airfield used for rusupplying the garrison stationed here until the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. The island is uninhabited!

The Runway is probably no good but for information:

[URMP] "pitiful fate of Pyatigorsk Airport" by Anonymous Flier

Sat, 06 Mar 2010 13:12:54 -0500

Comment by an Anonymous Flier on Pyatigorsk Airport, Russia:

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.

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.

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?

[URRY] "ICAO code conflict" by Anonymous Flier

Thu, 27 Aug 2009 07:50:38 -0400

Comment by an Anonymous Flier on Volgodonsk Airport, Russia:

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.
