About Usinsk Airport

Overview

Usinsk Airport serves the industrial region of northwestern Russia, located in the Komi Republic. Situated at 66.0047°N, 57.3672°E, the airport provides critical transportation infrastructure for the remote northern area, supporting regional and resource extraction operations.

Flying Conditions

The airport's elevation of 262 feet MSL indicates a relatively low-altitude environment typical of the northern Russian landscape. Given its high latitude location, pilots should anticipate significant seasonal weather variations, with potentially challenging conditions during winter months.

Notable Features

The airport features a single runway (13/31) measuring 8,202 feet constructed of concrete, which provides substantial landing and takeoff capabilities for medium-sized aircraft. Its geographic position in a northern industrial region suggests the airport likely supports oil, gas, and resource extraction logistics.

Approach Considerations

Runway 13/31's orientation suggests potential crosswind challenges, particularly given the airport's northern geographic location. Pilots should be prepared for potential wind variability and carefully review current meteorological conditions prior to approach, considering the runway's substantial 8,202-foot length as a strategic operational advantage.
