The runway for Mouyondzi is likely abandoned.

The coordinates given for Mouyondzi Airport in three common airport lists land on an area of small cultivated patches, not a runway. A runway of 1900 meters, given in some airport lists, would fit over these fields, and field boundaries align for a runway. The entire region around Mouyondzi is rolling hills, unsuitable for runways except on some ridges and open areas. No runways are visible in these areas.

Current (2014) aerial imagery (Google Maps 2014) shows cultivated fields covering the former runway. Older, undated low-resolution imagery (HERE/Nokia Maps) (Bing/Microsoft Maps) show a runway at this location. Cptmrmcmillan (talk) 18:03, 16 June 2016 (UTC)Reply
