Its in English; what dont you get?
Simple - what really happened? It might be in English, but far from aviation one... Flight inspector? Only 1500m? What was Israir doing, departing, landing?

What was Israir doing, departing, landing? "... realized the mistake and landed both planes with no harm.
... faulty judgment on the side of the tower employee who told the Israir plane to land."

Sorry, can anyone translate that article? I don't get itTry substituting "air traffic controller" for "flight inspector". It's quite clear then.

FWIW, the Hebrew for "controller" and "inspector" is the same word: pakach.
Nevertheless, the Jerusalem Post's syntax left a lot to be desired.
