Summary from English Wikipedia (enwiki)

Air Force Base Hoedspruit (IATA: HDS, ICAO: FAHS) is an airbase of the South African Air Force. It is located adjacent to the Kruger National Park. In the late 1990s an unused portion of the base was converted into a civilian airport known as Eastgate Airport. It was also an emergency landing site for the Space Shuttle.

Summary from Afrikaans / Afrikaans Wikipedia (afwiki)

Lugmagbasis Hoedspruit (IATA: HDS, ICAO: FAHS) is 'n militêre lugmagbasis van die Suid-Afrikaanse Lugmag geleë langsaan die Krugerwildtuin. Teen die einde van die 1990's is 'n onbenutte deel van die basis omskep in 'n burgerlike lughawe, genaamd Eastgate-lughawe. Dit het ook as 'n moontlike noodlandingsplek vir die Amerikaanse ruimtependeltuig gedien, weens sy lang aanloopbaan van byna 4 kilometer.
