I was there on July 27, 2002. It was a great air show. The pilots performed the Su-27UB superbly. I recommend this airport to everyone. It's especially cool that you can pay there in rubles, i.e. in national currency.
A good regional airport. The new building performs its function perfectly and looks beautiful. The airport is deeply integrated into the city with transport links, there is a regular trolleybus. There is a mall near the airport where you can wander around while waiting for a flight
