Kajjansi Airfield (ICAO: HUKJ) is an airfield serving Kajjansi, a town in the Central Region of Uganda. The airfield is approximately 20 kilometres (12 mi) north-east of Entebbe International Airport, Uganda's largest airport, and 16 kilometres (9.9 mi) south of central Kampala, Uganda's capital and largest city.
Kajjansi is in the southern portion of the Kampala conurbation. The runway is east of the Kampala-Entebbe road, bordering marshland near the shore of Lake Victoria.
Operations
The airfield is owned and operated by Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF), an international Christian humanitarian relief and development organisation. In the mid-2010s, the Christian engineering charity Engineering Ministries International (EMI) redeveloped the office building of the airfield.[3] The new office building became the headquarters of both MAF Uganda and EMI East Africa.[4]
