Tiskūnai airfield (Tiskūnai aerodromas) was an airfield 110 kilometers northwest of Vilnius.
The airfield was built by order of the Lithuanian SSR (a state within the Soviet Union) Council of Ministers in the 1975-1985 timeframe.
It was used for agricultural activities by state-run Aeroflot. It consisted of a small runway and two small platforms to the northwest of the runway. After Lithuanian independence the airfield was abandoned.
No photos or maps of the airfield while in use have been located
Undated aerial photography of the airfield (Google Earth) suggests the airfield is in reasonable shape, although debris (dirt mostly) appears to have been dumped around the runway in various places since 2012. It is abandoned and therefore officially closed to all traffic.
On this photograph from May 2012 the airfield appeared to be fairly clean (Google Earth)
In April 2014 however, dirt piles appeared on the edges of the runway an d on the southern end on the runway itself (Google Earth).
