Aeroflot operated services linking Svalbard Airport with the Soviet and, later, Russian mining communities of Pyramiden and Barentsburg from the mid-1960s, initially with Mil Mi-4s, and later Mil Mi-8s. The mining company Artikugol replaced Aeroflot with their own Mi-8s in the early 2000s. Photo: Ralf Kurz This photo was added on 12 September 2021, and has since been viewed 235 times. |
