Private airport "Berezniki"

18 photo.

While thousands of people are suffering, cursing Domodedovo and Sheremetyevo, I'll tell you about a very different aircraft, and on the other airport. Here, too, problems sending and receiving flights, and for a long time. But no crowds is not observed. There are no people at all - just the airport is closed.





1. Some of you will be surprised, but the airport even in small towns - are not uncommon. Previously, the country has been developed by small aircraft and domestic transportation. It is not every capital city has air connections and depart early from the district center to the village was normal. Another thing is that these airports are now closed, and planes and helicopters for a long time started up for scrap.



2. Why closed? For all I will not say, but this one, Berezniki, for several years literally "frozen" in a legal space. The municipal authorities put it up for sale, a deputy of the Perm businessman bought it. According to other sources - it first wanted to privatize, but the buyer is not found. In the third data, the deputy Fleginsky name is Alexander, and he has since 2006, dreams of a revival of small aircraft in the Perm region. To do this, he even bought an airline "Helix", but flights are still not satisfied.



3. Most inoperative this airport is not called - is based two aircraft An-2 (which is without engines, and its supposedly already sold to someone) and that's the Cessna. Sometimes it arrives some helicopter refuels, and flies back to an unknown destination.



4. We have met the airport staff who agreed to spend us a tour of the building. But - quickly, soon it will arrive the same helicopter for which you want to clear the area.



5. Quickly so quickly. So I end up talking about politics and business, and take a look, how to fly our fathers!



6. The airport was built in 1983. Aerial its network stretched almost the entire Urals. It could land all types of helicopters and small aircraft - AN-2, AN-24 and Yak-40.



7. After the collapse of the Soviet Union Berezniki Airport became the first airport in the country - municipal enterprise.



8. Then people stopped to fly - the salary of many in the "dashing nineties" was comparable to the price of the ticket.



9. Now the airport is no use to anyone - many officials say.
 - "With the development of a small-town airport road becomes unprofitable»
 - "It is impossible to develop infrakstrukturu airport in the forest, besides it is more geographically Solikamsk than Berezniki»
 - "It's just nowhere to fly»



10. On the wall in the control room - flight map.



11. Next to her - old photos. That summer, the team flew to Anapa. Here the pilots against the backdrop of the native airport still operating. And at the bottom of the poster with the Tu-154. He had a Russian flag, but also the Soviet logo. And some joker stuck next to a picture with an old Fiat.

14. And in the lobby, at the information stands - children's drawings. Airplanes and helicopters. How much time has passed? Children probably already grown ...



15. No important papers in the closets too left. But there are crafts, in large part, on aviatematiku. Those children are likely.



16. Last time there was a life of 8 years. Last Christmas light ... at the beginning of 2003, the airport was closed.



17. If it were not for the mysterious helicopter and the controversy surrounding the purchase of the building would be no one to protect. And there would be even these reminders that once there was life. There might be another "abandonment."



18. Lounges empty. No one is languishing, waiting for the flight to turn off the electricity because it ran out of icing or reagents.
