    CarolAnn Garratt , Flight log - visit to Israel 12.10.2011 – 16.10.2011 AOPA meeting in Haifa LLHA – front row left to right, Yigal, Dror, Yaron Efrat AOPA Israel Chairman 10/25/2011 What a day! When I arrived in Haifa, almost two weeks ago, Yigal, who took care of me, helped me with the clearances to fly to Israel and organized some of the meetings, also asked if I would like to fly to Masada. I’d read about Masada in AOPA Pilot Magazine about a year ago. I actually looked for the magazine and article before leaving home, thinking that I could contact the person in the article and fly there. But, I couldn’t find the article and then I learned that I couldn’t fly alone in Israel, so that was as far as I went. When Yigal asked me, I said yes, but it was not possible. He said with a smile, “Leave it to Yigal.” As with everything else, he made it happen! Today I flew to and landed at the lowest airstrip on Earth, 1240 feet below sea level. Not only that, but I received a guided tour and learned the history of Masada, the fort built by Herod on top of a mountain. It was fascinating. The only unfortunate part was that the weather had deteriorated a little and it was hazy. I flew there with Dror, who met me at Haifa airport when I first landed. At Mesada, we were hosted by Haviv who I had met at the presentations in Tel Aviv.

  • Delay from the Original Timetable. the Cost of the Alternatives Selected for This first Line Is Estimated at About $ 1,500 Million
    BANK OF ISRAEL, RESEARCH DEPARTMENT, ANNUAL REPORT, 2004 delay from the original timetable. The cost of the alternatives selected for this first line is estimated at about $ 1,500 million. The possibility of an additional line, most of it over-ground, from Holon to the Arlozoroff station in Tel Aviv, has been examined. Ben Gurion Airport 2000: Stage 1 (Terminal 3) of the Ben Gurion Airport 2000 project was opened at the end of 2004, with a delay from the original timetable, following an overall investment of $ 800 million. At the initial stage, the terminal will serve some 9 million passengers a year, at conditions far superior to those prevailing today. Haifa Airport: No progress was made in 2004. If the airport is constructed, it is expected to be in a BOT format. The project will double the length of the runway in the existing airport. The project is to be based on the complementary services of other projects, such as the Carmel tunnels and the Krayot–Haifa bypass road. Seaports: The Hayovel port in Ashdod is due to open in mid-2005, with a delay from the original timetable. 4. The construction industry a. Main developments The downward trend in the activity of the construction industry continued in 2004. Hopes of a recovery, based on indications evident in the first half of the year, were dashed, and the product and output of the industry even declined for the seventh year in succession, by 7.1 and 9.8 percent respectively. The slump in the industry was particularly prominent in view of the general growth trend in the economy as a whole and the improvement in demand fundamentals.

  • 2.2 Palestine Aviation (Israel)
    2.2 Palestine Aviation (Israel) Key airport information may also be found at: World AeroData The main airport for Israel is Tel Aviv- Ben Gurion Airport, Ben Gurion Airport, commonly known by its Hebrew acronym as Natbag, is the main international airport of Israel and the busiest airport in the country, located on the northern outskirts of the city of Lod, which is about 45 km northwest of Jerusalem and 20 km to the southeast of Tel Aviv. Another international airport, Eilat’s new Ramon Airport has officially opened just 18 km north of the city Eilat as of January 21, 2019. The new Ramon Airport has replaced the two existing airports in Eilat, Eilat City Airport and Ovda Airport, and creates a new international gateway to Southern Israel and the Red Sea. The Ramon Airport is expected to handle up to 2 million passengers a year upon opening with expansion allowing capacity of up to 4.2 million passengers by the year 2030. All domestic flights to the old Eilat City Airport from Tel Aviv and Haifa have now moved to the new Eilat Ramon Airport, whilst the airport will also begin handling low-cost and charter flights from Europe which previously arrived to Ovda Airport. There are several small airports all over Israel – Rosh Pina, Haifa and Herzelia. Also, in the past there was an airport to the north of Jerusalem which called Qalandia Airport, which was closed from a long time ago and now the plan is to change the area into an Industrial Zone Area. In the Gaza Strip there was an airport, but it was demolished by the IDF.

  • “South Africa's 800” by Henry Katzew
    SOUTH AFRICA’S 800 The Story of South African Volunteers in Israel’s War of Birth by Henry Katzew Compiled and produced by Maurice and Marcia Ostroff from Henry Katzew’s original manuscript Edited by Joe Woolf Key to the Front Cover Top to bottom: • The famous Haganah immigrant ship S.S Exodus 1947, in which 4500 refugees were forcibly returned to Hamburg in September 1947. (See foreword & Palestine Post article page 23) • Boris Senior in a Spitfire constructed from bits and pieces. • A group of Machalniks, in the Tank Corps. • A column of the 9th Palmach, Commando Battalion. Revised and reprinted November 2003 COPYRIGHT© All rights reserved No part of this document may be reproduced by any means whatsoever, except with the prior express written permission of the South African Zionist Federation. Correspondence should be addressed to: Telfed, 19/1 Schwartz Street, Ra’anana, 43212 Israel Telephone +972 9-7446110 Fax + 972 9-7446112 E-mail: [email protected] About this book “South Africa’s 800” is about Machal, the collective Hebrew acronym for volunteers from abroad and about individual volunteers, colloquially known as Machalniks. The book reveals details never previously documented and provides a valuable new perspective on Israel’s birth and struggle for survival. It includes eye witness reports by active participants in the events. While written mainly through South African eyes, the book also contains gripping anecdotes about volunteers from the USA, Britain and other countries. It throws new light on important events and personalities of the time. In his engaging eloquent style, Henry Katzew takes the reader on a fascinating expedition through recent historical events including: • Adventures of 8 young South Africans in their ill-fated attempt to bypass British restrictions on immigration to Palestine, by travelling overland from Pretoria.
