Description
I would like to request OOKB Khasab regional airport Oman. Located near the Strait of Hormuz the region is in a unique strategic location in an Oman exclaave north of United Arab Emerites. The city of Khasab has an international population and a popular vacations location. The airport also serves as a military airbase. Khasab airport is surrounded by mountains with a sea and mountain valley approach that makes for intersting landings and departures. The airport may have upgraded to an international airport. Think this would be a great airport to flying in and practice small airline manual approaches and departures.
OOKB Khasab is represented in DCS in the Persian Gulf Map. I really enjoy flying in and out of here in DCS and the airport is popular on Cap's Gripper Sim videos and others.

The terminal is unique and fits in with the local culture and architecture.
I could not find any ICAO charts for the airport.
Thank you.
