I have flown into the Ukraine a lot Firstly to Donetsk and then to Kiev when all that airspace was closed down in the east

Ok we are IFR high level Jet so I know little of small airports or grass field s but there are many restrictions and loops to jump with approvals for the flight and there is no way you could go there without first entering through a large airport.

I don't think you can even buy aviation fuel without a trading approval and will have to use someone else who already has that approval

I am not sure having entered via a large airport whether you would then get a clearance to fly to Joe Bloggs grass airfield ?

We rarely see other aircraft in that airspace apart from the odd USA AWACS or one or two airliners

You would be better talking to some of the flight clearance companies like overflight who would give you a better insight as they have detailed knowledge and may give you a friendly chat or free E mail response
