Not quite sure about "4 km north of Kharkiv" as the airport is located within city limits. Solarapex 02:44, 19 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Discussion edit

Any additional comments:

There was an inaccurate move with a reference to the cold war (the move could be politically motivated), but nonetheless this airport exists as Kharkiv North airport not only in English sources, but in Russian sources as well. See: http://avia.meteonovosti.ru/index.php?index=1&icao=UA-UK60&iso_cntr=UA http://worldaerodata.com/wad.cgi?id=UP00017 The name has nothing to do with the cold war at all. The airport is just located in the northern part of the city. I suggest to swap Kharkiv Sokolniki Airport and Kharkiv North Airport Solarapex (talk) 23:49, 27 July 2008 (UTC)Reply
