Uganda’s Civil Aviation Authority is partnering to put together a show case aviation event on the weekend of December 15th and 16th,
bringing together the aviation industry to give Ugandans a hands on experience.
Air Uganda has already offered to fly disabled children on a special flight on their MD 87 aircraft
while the general aviation community from Kajjansi, the Kampala Aero Club, MAF aka Mission Aviation Fellowship and Ndege Juu will join hands with their colleagues from Entebbe such as Eagle Air and AirServ.
Also on board is the Uganda People’s Defence Forces Air Force and the East African Civil Aviation Academy from Soroti, the latter probably also doing a spot or two of career guidance when talking about the courses available at what is often referred to as the Flying School.
Capt. Howard Davenport from the Kampala Aero Club will be performing some of his stunning aerial aerobics displays
while other aircraft like air force Sukois and a C130 will be doing fly pasts and low overflights to thrill the crowds,
while sky divers will aim to hit the centre point on the ground as they come circling down from the skies above.
