Talk:Entebbe International Airport

Operation Entebbe
I reverted the change of the wikilink from Operation Thunderbolt back to the original Operation Entebbe. The Wikipedia article title is Operation Entebbe, and as an editor notes on that article's Talk page, "In Israel the operation is popularly known as "operation Entebbe", and officialy as "operation Yonatan". No one (except Hollywood) really calls it "Operation Thunderbolt". MCB 23:26, 25 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Well argued. I won't revert back. But it is interesting... in the U.K. it's either known as Operation Thunderbolt or "Raid on Entebbe". Dweller 08:55, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Interesting, thanks for the message. Here in the U.S. we mostly just say "Raid on Entebbe" as well, and I think there was a (TV?) movie by that name. But I'm willing to accept the established article name as well as the note from an Israeli editor. Cheers, MCB 00:54, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

Photos
I reinserted the photo of the passenger terminal. It was previously on the page, but on 19 November, 2012 it was removed (along with most other photos in the gallery) without explanation. The only remaining building portrayed was the old terminal building - which is today used only for military purposes. Since a major part of the article focuses on the passenger traffic I don't see why a photo of the passenger terminal is irrelevant.

Agadir - Royal Air Maroc
Sitting at Entebbe airport now and there is a Royal Air Maroc charter flight leaving for Agadir tonight. So its legit (marked as dubious in the article) but I cannot find any reference for this, or who this flight would possibly be targeting.

Flight is AT 4080

Takeover by the PRC after failure to repay loans.
Saying the airport is "owned" by China seems somewhat dubious, from what I have read on this situation it seems that Chinese takeover is just a potentiality allowed by the loan agreement, and that the takeover has not yet occurred. If the takeover has in fact gone ahead, it would be good to cite this in the infobox I think. https://allafrica.com/stories/202111260118.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by Leftwinglow (talk • contribs) 07:35, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
