Sharjah - Jiwani

Sharjah – Jiwani. GSGS4561, Strip number 15. Scale 1,000,000. Published by War Office and printed by the Ordnance Survey 1945. Shows aerial route marked in red. Incomplete

Incomplete strip map copied from GSGS255 maps. With other strips of the GSGS4561 series this formed an aerial route book. This strip should show the route marked in red from Sharjah to Jiwani via Jask but only goes as far as Pushat. In 1932 Imperial Airways established an air service including overnight stops at Sharjah which is now an Emirate of the United Arab Emirates, and this airfield later became RAF Sharjah.
