You got it.
The grass/coral airstrip which was used for community sports was sealed around 1994-- the photo of the new strip was taken shortly after.
The AMI 748 flew the central Pacicic route from the Marshall islands through Tarawa, Funafuiti to Nadi in Fiji - My job in those days took me on that route once a month - many memories and happy ones - save for the tropical storms the old 748 had to pass through.

I thought it looked like St Petersburg - Pulkovo, the old terminal, can't remember the number. If you say its a fair distance from the Baltic states then perhaps not. Does look Soviet though.

Neither Vladivostok nor Minsk.
Although its not raining in the pic (edit: the supply of) water is definately not a problem in this area.
