Bălți Aerodrome (Romanian: Aerodromul Bălți, Russian: Аэродром Бельцы), also known as Bălți-Teioasa Aerodrome, was the first civil airfield in the city of Bălți, then part of the Kingdom of Romania. It operated during the interwar period as a civil aerodrome. It was located in what was then the western district of the city of Bălți, known as Teioasa.
During World War II, the site was repurposed as a Soviet auxiliary military airfield in the Moldavian SSR.[1][2]
