Ust-Maya Airport Fuel Station
Fuel Station
This small aviation fuel station sits at Ust-Maya’s gravel airstrip, serving charter flights and emergency refueling for the isolated Aldan Highlands. The facility stocks Jet A-1 and AvGas, with limited automotive diesel available by arrangement with the airport manager. The single pump operates intermittently — fuel deliveries arrive by air cargo every 2-3 weeks during summer.
Access via the rough mining road from Ust-Nera requires high-clearance 4WD and river crossings. Open May through September when the airstrip is operational. No services beyond fuel — carry emergency supplies and communicate arrival plans via satellite phone.
