Oka residents choose a name for the airport in Sakhalin The competition continues to choose a name for the airport in the city of Oka. The offers were received through the E.65 mobile application and a free hotline. Mikhail Vodupyanov's candidacy is supported by the fact that in 1930 he made the first flight from Khabarovsk to Alexandrovsk-Sakhlinsky with a landing in the Oka region. During the war, Grigory Trofimovich Podshibailov introduced a high-speed drilling method, and in 1944 his team set a record - they went 1,500 meters a month instead of the planned 600. The names Grigory Dolnikov and Ilya Mazurok are also mentioned among the proposals.
