RAF Mount Pleasant Airport (IATA code: MPN, ICAO code: EGYP), also known as Mount Pleasant Airport, Mount Pleasant Complex or MPA, is a Royal Air Force station in the British Overseas Territory of the Falkland Islands. Located about 33 miles (53 kilometers) southwest of Stanley, the capital of the Falklands, on the island of East Falkland, it is home to between 1,000 and 2,000 British military personnel.
Opened on 12 May 1985, the airfield was constructed as part of British efforts to strengthen the defence of the Falkland Islands following the Falklands War. It remains the newest purpose-built RAF station and replaced previous RAF facilities at Port Stanley Airport. It is now also used for civilian purposes.
