Israel Takes First Place in American Air Competition
[Jerusalem Post] Yaakov Katz - Last week an Israel Air Force team won the trophy for best C-130 air crew at the U.S. Air Mobility Rodeo 2009 competition. Twelve air crews from eight countries were tested on landing, locating drop zones and parachuting equipment. In a total of four drops, the Israeli crew loitered over the drop zones for a total of six seconds. "The U.S. commander sent a team onto our plane to see how we succeeded in doing it," IAF navigator Col. (res.) Avshalom said Tuesday.
