Non-existent airport

Latest comment: 8 years ago2 comments1 person in discussion

There is no Ishasha airport. The town of Ishasha is in the DR Congo, and has no airstrip near it. Savannah Airstrip is 8 km northeast, but serves the town of Kihihi, with only a back road headed toward Ishasha. The article mentions 404 km SE of Entebbe, but that distance would be well outside of Uganda, and is the exact distance to the airport at Goma, DRC. The article lists Uganda Civil Aviation Authority as a reference, but that doesn't mention Ishasha. Cptmrmcmillan (talk) 07:01, 4 May 2014 (UTC) .Reply

More research and Google Historical Imagery find that the airstrip was in the middle of town, but now has trees and shrubbery growing in it. Cptmrmcmillan (talk) 21:51, 31 October 2015 (UTC)Reply
