This file contains correspondence relating to:

  • Discontinuation of the weekly chartered flight, run by Petroleum Development (Oman) between Aden and Muscat and the implications this might have for sending communications between Muscat and Salalah (1)
  • Discontinuation of air services between Bahrain and Aden. This will leave Salalah without a regular air service which, it is suggested, will cause difficulties for the Sultan of Muscat and Oman Saeed Bin Taimur who is based there (2)
  • Details of a new weekly flight, which will be operated by the RAF, which will fly between Aden and Bahrain, calling at Salalah and Azaiba (3)
  • Details of special flights between Aden and the Gulf region, carried out between the 23 and 26 September 1960 (4)
