Map
VIProds
I'm not sure exactly when this map first appeared, but it did not accompany John Crampton's first article on Op Ju-Jitsu entitled 'Russian Photo Shoot' in the Aug 1997 edition of Air Pictorial.
As far as I am aware a version of this map first appeared in Cargill Hall's article 'The Truth about Overflights' in the Spring 1997 edition of 'The Quarterly Journal of Military History'. The map accompanying this article also includes the route of the Fairford based RB-47E's overflight of Murmansk in May 1954. It's in this article that Cargill Hall gives the most detailed account of the overflight of Kapustin Yar, including the month, Aug 1953, that he believes it occured, but he does not mention a specific date.
Of course it's interesting to speculate why Cargill Hall, who after all was the National Reconnaissance Office historian for many years, would choose to include so much detail if the flight never actually took place?
