From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This airport is located in Nairobi, for the airport in the United Kingdom, see Southampton Airport

Moi Air Base, formerly known as RAF Eastleigh and Eastleigh Airport (ICAO airport code: HKRE) is a military airport located to the east of Nairobi, in the Eastleigh suburb. The airport is used by the Kenya Air Force. Additionally, the air base is the home of the East African School of Aviation run by the Kenya Civil Aviation Authority, which was established at the airport in 1954 as the DCA training school. The airport is also used to train Kenyan Air Cadets.

It has a single 7900 ft runway.

Due to its military status, the airport is not shown in any official map of Nairobi. Instead, the area is left blank. This does not affect Google Earth, though.
