Spot on Piltdown Man, I too have looked into this claim. No matter how hard I try I cannot get an aircraft on any approach, doing a left-hand orbit (?) ending up over the Presidential Palace at Entebbe.

For those unfamiliar with the Palace, here it is shown a google map some 2.2 miles, and 90 degress to the ENE of the threshold of rwy17.

In a similar vein to the Winslow CRASH/ACCIDENT/INCIDENT/DINK (delete as applicable), the narrative does not stand-up to scrutiny.
