摘要

UGANDAN PRESIDENT Yoweri Museveni made an official visit to Gulu Air Base on November 5 for the passing-out ceremony of the latest class of 18 pilots and 20 technicians for the Uganda People's Defence Air Force (UPDAF). As part of the ceremony, no fewer than seven L-39 trainers were on display - including all four newly acquired L-39ZA aircraft recently delivered from overhaul and modernisation at the OAZ repair plant in Odessa, Ukraine (see Uganda expands and modernises L-39 fleet, December 2019, p23).
