Despite the fact that Sharjah is a very busy, largely cargo airport there is very little hangarage though the superb climate means that even major servicing can be carried out in the open as shown here. This aircraft was destroyed on June 27th, 2008 when it crashed near Malakal en route from Khartoum to Juba. Seven of the eight on board were killed.
