Talk:Kabalega Falls Airport

Name of airport
Available evidence strongly indicates that Kabalega Falls Airport is synonymous with Pakuba Airport. If, at a later date, evidence surfaces to the contrary, this redirect can be reversed and a separate article written about Kabalega Falls Airport.Fsmatovu (talk) 15:45, 18 December 2009 (UTC)


 * I have converted this redirect into a separate article for Kabalega Falls Airport. Great Circle Mapper shows different coordthe inates for each airport, and WikiMapia clearly shows two different runways located approx. 15 km apart and on opposite sides of the Victoria Nile river. References to both sites are included in the new article. -- Zyxw (talk) 06:10, 9 March 2010 (UTC)


 * I discovered major errors in most of the available online cartographical material. On Openstreetmap as well as on Google Maps the node with the coordinates 02°19′35″N 031°29′52″E is denoted as "Kabalega Falls Airport". This is definitely false! The airstrip at the mentioned coordinates is named "Pakuba Airfield". Not only have I been there myself, but also the Civil Aviation Authority of Uganda names the place as such (see here: http://www.caa.co.ug/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=122&Itemid=71). Therefore, I corrected the error on OSM and it should definitely be corrected here on Wikipedia. The redirect by Fsmatovu was correct and I therefore reinstated it! The second airfield inside Murchison Falls Nationalpark is "Bugungu Airstrip" on the southern bank of the Victoria Nile. Jomibe (talk) 12:44, 14 April 2015 (UTC)


 * If I used "Airline and Airport Code Search" (website: http://www.iata.org/publications/Pages/code-search.aspx ) today, there are two different IATA codes for two airports: PAF for Pakuba Airport and KBG for Kabalega Falls Airport. So I think, there are really two different airports. In my opinion, above mentioned "Bugungu Airstrip" should be "KBG" airport. Although, I will not change the redirect. woy23 (talk) 19:29, 24 November 2015 (UTC)
