Near Misses at Ben Gurion, again

Hi ya.

According to local newspapers, it was this time not pirate broadcaster, this time it was
  • A faulty ILS due to overwhelming vegetation, which lead to a wrong instrument indication and too low approaches of two aircrafts in bad visibility.

  • An EL AL pilot who didnīt follow the instruction of the ATC "close enough" (whatever this means) causes a near miss with an Uzbekistan AL a/c.

Probe of near misses finds serious failures at B-G Airport - Haaretz - Israel News

Maybe itīs overhyping "journo stuff", but in the recent times, there are indication that incidents mounts in the israelian civil aviation.

Regard,
