New Pilots, Future Pilots

From New Pilots, Future Pilots


No volcanoes or rain forests here, but from the Negev Desert, an only-in-Israel experience today for Keren, Talya, Isak, their Daddy and Dodi. We went to the rank-giving ceremony and airshow for the newest pilots in the air force, graduates of the most demanding and prestigious course in Tzahal. We got to see Israel's current combat aircraft close up and talk with current pilots. Lots of fun. Then at the ceremony for the few pilots who successfully make it through the three-year course, we heard a little about each new pilot, and then watched an incredible airshow of acrobatic planes doing loops, flying sideways and upside-down, and performing precision stunts. All thanks to Nefesh b'Nefesh. We'll be back when the Agus kids graduate.
