Kampala Aeroclub
And Flight Training Centre

An ISO9001:2008 Certified Company!

Kampala Aeroclub provides air and helicopter charter for Uganda's tourism, oil industry, business, government, NGOs, health care providers, and more.

Tourism is mainly to the game parks to see Uganda's wide variety of wildlife. We also provide service to neighboring countries- to Kenya's Masai Mara, for example. We provide air charter to the Lake Albert region for several oil companies, primarily Tullow Oil (We are pleased to announce that after a detailed tenering process we have renewed our contract with Tullow Oil! We look forward to providing them with aviation services in the coming years as they develop Uganda's oil industry.) We have flown for many embassies, government agencies, aid and health organizations. We provide airplane and helicopter medical evacuation services, an important service to people who are not fit for a 12 hour drive to Kampala. We provide air charter service to tea, coffee, cocoa, and timber growers in Uganda. Kampala Aeroclub provides money drops- cash in transit, or CIT- to upcountry locations. We do aerial filming and photography. We can fly people, supplies, spare parts, etc. to any point in Uganda and surrounding regions.

Audits

Our major clients often require additional safety standards, such as a rigorous third-party audits of our safety and training systems, maintenance program, recordkeeping, and so on. These audits ensure that our quality and safety standards remain high and that we are always undergoing review and improvement. Our recent ISO9001 certification is one example of this. Some clients request additional safety standards such as two pilot crews, turbine aircraft, or twin engine aircraft. We are happy to provide these services to our clients. Please contact us for information about our certifications, audits, special requirements, etc.

Some of our more well known industrial clients include:

  • Tullow Oil
  • Rio Tinto Mining
  • Anglo Gold Ashanti

We also fly for clients from tourism and other industries, including: Abercrombie and Kent, Far Horizons, Classic Africa, The Uganda Safari Company, the US Embassy, the British High Commision, German High Commission, Save The Children (and other aid/ngos), and cash-in-transit services for Findlay's Tea and Crane Bank.

This is by no means a complete list, just a selection of clients for whom we provide regular air charter services.
