The airfield in 2013 (MyAirfields)

MyAirfields (formerely Latvian Airfields) listed the airfield as 'fairly good' in 2011. In 2013 that changed to 'Average'.  RWY surface is average, occasionally small stones and sand, small pieces of grass. Small bush at NW side of RWY approx at RWY mid length. Minor asphalt pitting in front of that bush on RWY close to RWY centerline. Apron and taxiways unserviceable. Runway can be used for takeoff and landings. Obstacles may be on the runway!!!
The airfield is uncertified and officially closed to all traffic, however.
