Ikono,
I have been curious about the aeroclub at Nalivaikovka (sp?), West of Kiev. Actually, as a low-time ultralight pilot, I had considered flying there, but after reading this thread I am beginning to doubt the wisdom AND affordability of such a trip.

As I understand their website, flying is rather informal there, somewhat like ultralight operations in France. But perhaps they are tolerated because many of them are apparently professionals from the various aviation industries in Kiev?
As you fly an ultralight, you may have been in touch with them?

Aeroclub

NB I am surprised to find you were allowed at UKKK, Zhulyany airport. I should think they'd not allow you in controlled airspace?
