Tura Mountain Airport guide

Tura Mountain Airport, known in Russian as Gorny and also called Tura Airport, is one of two airports serving Tura, the administrative centre of Evenkiysky District in Krasnoyarsk Krai. It lies about 13 km northeast of the settlement, on the southern slopes of the Putorana Mountains, where the Kochechum and Lower Tunguska rivers meet. Its ICAO code is UNIT and the airport sits at 623 m above sea level.

The airport is operated by FKP Aeroporty Krasnoyarya, a federal state enterprise. It has one runway, designated 17/35, which is 1,400 m long and 28 m wide with a reinforced concrete surface. Gorny handles the longer-distance flights from Tura, while the second airport, Tura MVL, is the other airfield serving the settlement.

KrasAvia flies the scheduled route from Tura to Krasnoyarsk, using ATR-42-500 and ATR-72 aircraft according to the Russian Wikipedia article. Annual passenger numbers there fell from 27.8 thousand in 2014 to 19.6 thousand in 2015 and 18.8 thousand in 2016, a decline that reflects the small size of the settlement and the limited number of scheduled services.
