Shalom and greetings all my pals,
Presenting a nice flight from LLHA Haifa Airport located to the east of Hafia to LLOV Ovda Airport located in the Uvda region of southern Israel about 37 miles north of Eilat.
New recruits leaving their cars to run to board that plane

Plane waiting for the new recruits to board

New Recruits boarding the plane via rear and side doors

Rear door closing

Starting left engines!!

Starting right engines spewing black smoke and blasting off engine start flames

Taxiing to short of runway 34

Entering into runway 34 for more taxi and backtracking

You can see oil refineries located on Hahistadrut Avenue ahead of you

Backtracking with background view of oil refineries

Airborne on climb to FL200

Nice view of waters of Mediterranean sea

Still making left turn toward south via Tel Aviv

Still climbing to FL200 with background view of entire city landscape of Hafia including Kishon Port and Israel Shipyards

Wing view of Atlit, Israel where salt factories are and waters on bottom of screen is called Salt Island

Wing view of Mediterranean Sea

Cruising at FL200 across Israeli landscape

Cruising past suburb of Tel Aviv

Making right turn on north tip of Dead Sea

Cruising across Dead Sea

Descending above Negev desert


On final runway approach to runway 03R

Seconds before touchdown blowing some desert sand dust

TOUCHDOWN spewing desert sand dust


Front landing making ground contact

Thank you for viewing and stay tuned for next exciting flight!!
Regards,
Aharon
