About This Airport
Some 570 kilometres of roadless tundra separate Chaybukha Airport (ICAO: UHMG) from the nearest cargo gateway, which is why this 2,000-metre concrete runway 06/24 in northern Magadan Oblast matters at all. Sitting at 207 feet about 8 kilometres north-east of the Chaybukha settlement in the Severo-Evensk district of the Russian Far East, it is one of the few paved fields in the area able to take mid-size airliners and gives a sparsely populated region its link to the outside world. No IATA code is assigned, and there is no cargo terminal, customs post or scheduled freighter operation; goods, mail and supplies ride as belly load on regional flights. Infrastructure is limited to rudimentary taxiways and a small apron, so cargo handling in any Western sense is not available. Operating status at Russian northern airfields shifts with the season and is not publicly confirmed for Chaybukha, so it should be verified with the operator before planning. For genuine air freight, Magadan-Sokol (GDX) to the south-west is the nearest meaningful gateway, with Yakutsk (YKS) an alternative for traffic towards the Lena basin.
