History




The plan of the airport's construction


The airfield assigned to the newly established in 1941 Flight Research Institute has served as a major USSR aircraft testing establishment, with most of the major Russian OKBs having facilities there. This airfield was used as a test site for the Soviet Buran Spacecraft.[3] It was also used by the Ministry of Emergency Situations and cargo carriers. Until June 2006, jet fighters flights for the public and international customers were available at the Gromov Flight Research Institute airfield (a number of two-seater jets like: Aero L-39 Albatros, Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-25 Foxbat, for Edge of Space flights, Mikoyan MiG-29 Fulcrum, etc.).[4]


On March 29, 2011, then Russian prime minister Vladimir Putin proposed moving all charter and low-cost flights to Ramenskoye Airport (as it was then called), to relieve to Moscow's Sheremetyevo, Domodedovo and Vnukovo airports and reduce the cost of tickets.[5]
A new terminal was constructed and the airport scheduled to be opened on 16 March 2016,[6] but was later postponed to unspecified date due to lack of interest and airport certification issues.[7]
The airport was eventually opened on 30 May 2016.[8] The opening ceremony was attended by Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev.


The Joint Venture "Ramport Aero" running the airport is formed by Lithuania's Avia Solutions Group (75%) and Russia state corporation Rostec (25%), who aimed to expand the airport in three stages.[9][10] While the opening of the new airport was delayed and aircraft limit to Ramenskoye is implemented,[11]Air France-KLM noted it tends to use Ramenskoye as a diversion airport to Sheremetyevo in case of emergency.[12]


The airport was originally named the same as the airfield after the nearby city of Ramenskoye. However, in 2016 it was officially re-named after the city of Zhukovsky, in which it is geographically situated. The opening ceremony of the airport was held on 30 May 2016 and the first commercial passenger flights were expected to begin on 20 June 2016.[13]


The airfield is a part of the Gromov Flight Research Institute (publicly well-known as a host of the biennial MAKS Airshow). The airport is uses the institute's world's second longest public-use runway, at 5,402 m (17,723 ft). There is also a second and shorter runway of 2950 m, but it is closed indefinitely.

Run scheduled task as local user group (not BUILTIN)

Image
0 I am trying to run a scheduled task with User Group (not a single user). This is working fine when I in the field "when running a task, use the following user account:" insert BUILTIN User Group (for example: Administrators or Users). But when I try it with the created Local User Group (example: TestGroup) it is not working. The Users in the TestGroup are the same as in the Administrators group. What could be the problem? Are there some restrictions to the Created User Group compared to BUILTINUsers? scheduled-tasks taskscheduler windowstaskschedule share | improve this question asked Nov 15 '18 at 15:36 Far...
