The true test of a national airline, however, lies in the complex, hands-on work of keeping it flying.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200eThis past week, Uganda Airlines engineers met that challenge head-on, performing the first-ever in-house engine change on an A330.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200eUganda Airlines\u2019 Approved Maintenance Organisation (AMO) successfully performed its first-ever in-house engine replacement on a CRJ900 aircraft, registration 5X-KNP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200eThe achievement comes just days before the national carrier marks its sixth anniversary on August 28, 2025, underscoring its growing technical independence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200eThe operation involved removing the aircraft\u2019s left engine (Engine 1) and installing a new General Electric CF34-8C5 unit. The replaced engine will be shipped to the manufacturer for scheduled modifications and later reinstalled on the opposite side, ensuring both engines undergo the necessary upgrades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200eWhile engine changes are standard in global aviation, this was groundbreaking for Uganda Airlines, since it was the first conducted entirely by its AMO team since certification by the Uganda Civil Aviation Authority in March 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e\u201cThis is a milestone achievement for our airline, our country, and the region,\u201d&nbsp;said Peter Emuge, Head of Maintenance and Engineering. Until now, such operations had to be outsourced abroad. &#8220;With our AMO, we can now handle top-level technical work locally, using Ugandan engineers.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200eHe explained that although an engine change typically takes 48 hours, extra time was allocated for this first attempt to give young engineers full hands-on learning.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200eOutsourcing such a job abroad would have cost over USD 100,000, excluding ferrying and handling expenses, while conducting it in Uganda saves the airline and country significant resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200eThough the AMO team includes internationally recruited specialists, Uganda Airlines has invested heavily in training local engineers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200eCurrently, 18 graduate trainees from Soroti Flying School and leading universities like Makerere University are undergoing mentorship, with the goal of attaining aircraft maintenance licences within three years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e\u201cWhen Uganda Airlines restarted, some doubted whether Ugandans could handle such technical work,\u201d&nbsp;said CEO Jenifer Bamuturaki. Today, our engineers have proven themselves. &#8220;We are nurturing the next generation of managers, pilots, and engineers, so this airline becomes fully Ugandan-led.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200eAccording to Joseph Lukwago, Head of Line Maintenance, Uganda Airlines has slashed maintenance costs since taking over from Dutch firm SAMCO in August 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e\u201cPreviously, we spent between UGX 800 million and 1 billion monthly on outsourced maintenance. &#8220;By doing the work ourselves, we\u2019ve reduced these costs significantly,\u201d&nbsp;Lukwago explained.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200eFlying the aircraft abroad for the engine change alone would have cost USD 10,000 in fuel plus over USD 100,000 for the procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200eHe noted that about 45 staff members, including engineers, assistants, and trainees, are engaged in line maintenance, with women playing a notable role.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis engine change included female engineers, a technical records officer, a materials&#8217; manager, and a development engineer overseeing engines. It\u2019s a milestone for gender inclusion in aviation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200eThe engine change symbolises broader progress for Uganda Airlines as it positions itself for long-term sustainability. Passenger numbers have grown from 70,000 in 2019 to more than 419,000 in the last financial year, pushing the cumulative total since relaunch to over 1.2 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e\u201cWe started with just five flights daily in 2019,\u201d&nbsp;Bamuturaki noted. Today, we operate nearly 59 flights a day, over 580 weekly. &#8220;Our cargo services are expanding, and our London route has been a breakthrough in revenue, recognition, and tourism promotion.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200eLike many global carriers, Uganda Airlines faces supply chain challenges, particularly with spare parts. Emuge reassured the public that mitigation measures are in place, including predictive maintenance and supplier partnerships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e\u201cThe challenge is global, not unique to Uganda Airlines,\u201d&nbsp;he said. Post-COVID demand outpaced production, causing delays and higher costs. But spare parts remain available for our GE-powered CRJ aircraft engines.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200eBamuturaki added: \u201cThanks to pre-ordered spare engines secured with government support, operations continue smoothly as engines rotate for maintenance. It is disappointing when Ugandans undermine their own airline. In other countries, citizens support their national carriers. I urge Ugandans to do the same, because our success benefits the entire economy.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u200e\u201cUganda Airlines is still young, but the strides we\u2019ve made show what is possible,\u201d&nbsp;Bamuturaki said. \u201cWe are building something that will serve generations to come.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Fidel Boy Leon \u200e \u200eAcquiring the aircraft was the first step.
