Ulyanovsk Baratayevka Airport — Ulyanovsk, Russia

Ulyanovsk Baratayevka Airport, coded ULV, is a smaller of the two airports serving Ulyanovsk, a historic city on the Volga River in Russia and the birthplace of Vladimir Lenin. While the larger Vostochny facility handles major cargo and industrial aviation, Baratayevka primarily supports general aviation, flight training, and smaller regional operations. The airport contributes to Ulyanovsk's broader aviation identity, a city long associated with aircraft manufacturing and pilot education in Russia. Local aeroclubs and light aircraft use ULV extensively, making it a practical facility for hobbyist pilots and training programs rather than commercial passenger traffic, complementing the city's substantial aerospace industry heritage.
