Reply to @espinielli: Clearly had to be towed or trucked there somehow, considering the lack of runway (or VTOL capability). Pretty wild.

How did that airframe in the satellite image arrive there?
Repurposing duplicate
This was previously a duplicate heading for Mestia Airport -- it's been repurposed for a heliport near Tbilisi.
Great airport but beware the taxi driver!
Nice and efficient.
the airport looks closed?
can anyone shed some light about the state of the infrastructure and length of the runway? is it planned to reopen it?
Now new terminal building
Airport is now named "Mestia Queen Tamar Airport"

Reply to @david:
there are only three operating civil airports in Georgia for the moment:
Tbilisi International Airport (TBS)
Batumi International Airport (BUS)
Kutaisi International Airport (Kopitnari / KPT)
Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti
Zugdidi is the capital city of Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti region.
Is this airport closed?
The markings are nearly worn off the pavement, and at least one road or path seems to cross it.

Good airport. Clean, modern, but small. However, I don't think they need bigger.
