history
The history of aviation in Barnaul begins 1937: On October 27, was a sub-unit of the Soviet Air Forces , a chain of Polikarpov Po-2 moved to Barnaul. On March 12, 1967, a modern airport was opened with a concrete runway 2000 m long and 50 m and a hotel west of the city. From June 20, 1967 there was a flight connection with Ilyushin Il-18 to Moscow . After the runway was extended from 2000 m to 2500 m, Tupolev Tu-154 flew to Moscow from January 12, 1975 .
In 1995 the airport received the status of an international airport. On September 23, 1997, the current operating company of the airport was founded as OAO Awiapredprijatie Altai . In 1998 the runway was completely repaired and extended by 350 m. In addition, the runway lighting was renewed. In the same year a Tupolev Tu-204 landed in Barnaul as part of a test flight. Three years later a flight navigation system was installed, which now made it possible to use the runway in the second direction. Since the beginning of 2004, Airbus A310 aircraft have also been allowed to be handled at the airport . The Russian airport operator Novaport has held 48% of the operating company since about this time. On May 27, 2010, the Altai region's parliament decided to give the airport the nickname German Stepanowitsch Titow . In 2016, over 30 million rubles were invested in the airport's vehicle fleet and new vehicles were purchased for the airport fire department , de-icing and an airport bus. After only small areas had been repaired over the years, the renovation of an almost 500 m long and 30 m wide section of the runway, which corresponds to about one sixth, was completed in May 2018. However, further major renovations are not expected in the next few years, as the airport has been excluded from state subsidy programs and the most recent maintenance has already been financed by the operating company.
