Les's Tel Aviv Fam Flight Report 19/2/69-23/2/69
Al,
I've just dug out his report on that Fam trip, it's 5 pages long! ELAL LY234 outbound London-Rome-Tel Aviv. The day before terrorists had attacked an ELAL aircraft at Zurich so the airline was in a bit of disarray to say the least. Whilst he was out there he reports that there were border incursions, bomb attack in a Jerusalem supermarket and a bus struck a landmine! Just as he was about to board the return flight an airport truck damaged the B707 causing a 3 hour delay and an aircraft switch which routed back via Zurich (LY411)! By the way, I haven't got those shorts but I've still got the spotters book!
