Ugandan L-39ZA Albatross!

(Copyright Unknown)


This has been sitting on my hard drive for a while now, so much so that i cant recall the forum its comes from, so apologies for not being able to credit the photo to anyone. Anyways, this is one of three ex Libyan L-39ZA's donated to Uganda, which spent most of their time sitting on the Entebbe ramp.

The above Photo is not Entebbe though, and looking at the Apron, its somewhere in Eastern Europe, Russia or Ukraine. If so, then they are for upgrade, and are now back in service.

The three L-39ZA'S are:-

AF-701
AF-702
AF-703

  1. Hi,
    Funny to see one of these . I was there in Kampala when Museveni took power in 86. Saw these L-39 flying over Kampala, was it a year or less after, can't remember... It was an excitement to see jets , i climbed on the roof to watch these. I can remember they where still in lybian marking at the time, yellow/orange anti-colision and the green dots. I remember there was also some lybian SF-260s approx at the same time... Don't know if they stayed there.

    Btw, thank you for including my website to your links here. Just a small note, the Url should be "www.galgot.com", with a g, not a c ;)

    Cheers
