Help Please ICAO OMSM ??

Post by ajs1964 »

Hello one and all,

I have just downloaded some Plans and Planes for the UAE. So far three of these refer to an aerodrome OMSM.
Trouble is I can find no real world reference to this airfield and so cannot update my AIFP details.
Can anyone please provide the real world info for this field?

Thanks in advance

Simple Google search reveals:

The ICAO code OMSM corresponds to Sir Abu Nuayr Airport (also spelled Sir Abu Nuayr, Sir Abu Nuair), located on Sir Abu Nuayr Island in the Emirate of Sharjah, United Arab Emirates.

It doesn't seem to be a default airfield in FSX.

John, I cannot find OMSM in a "simple Google search." However OMSM reveals the airport you referenced in Sharjah. Can you provide a screenshot of at least the text from your search?
Cheers

I guess the issue here is that the ICAO should be OMSN
Cheers,

My previous should have read OMSN reveals the Sharjah airfield. I guess the easiest will be to amend the FP to reflect OMSN instead of OMSM. Thanks for the help guys.
