About Captain Juan Manuel Boiso Lanza Air Base

Cap. Juan Manuel Boiso Lanza Air Base (Spanish: Base Aérea Cap. Juan Manuel Boiso Lanza) (ICAO: SUBL) is an air base of the Uruguayan Air Force located in the Montevideo Department of Uruguay. Air Brigade III, which includes the Nº7 Squadron (Observation & Liaison) is stationed on the field. The Air Force Command and Staff College (Spanish: la Escuela de Comando y Estado Mayor Aéreo) is also on the base.

The air base is considered the birthplace of the Uruguayan Air Force because the first airplanes such as the T-6 Texan and the Curtiss Falcon were assembled in the base workshops. The first helicopter squadron was also formed at the base before the unit was transferred to Carrasco.

The streets bordering the base are Avenue de las instrucciones, Av. General San Martin, and Av. Pedro de Mendoza.
