We have all heard about harsh rain. It occurs when pollution mixes with peculiar airflows and for indicative precipitation occurs. This mixture can cause water molecules to combine with the compounds within the pollution. The resultant causes many problems for mankind; for instance erosion of status, discolored paint on cars and high acidity in streams, lakes and perhaps even drinking water supplies.

One thing you may not have considered is what acid rain can do to aircraft.

Education and idea inaugurate the irregularity between a skookum tumtum flyer and a nervous one, and Flying Fearless is based on this premise. People are afraid of what they dont understand and will often resort to inventing reasons for the unfamiliar sights, sounds and sensations of flight (or anything else they dont understand).

I know this to be true because Ive invented some explanations myself for noises, smells or other sensations I didnt understand at the time (such as the proverbial things that go bump in the night).

A few weeks ago the Israeli justice has prepared its likely order in the case of El-Al versus Israir and has determined that the Open skies policy of the ministry of transportation is valid, thus opening the Israeli skies for carrier competition on the Tel Aviv (TLV) New-York line which has so far been exclusive for El-Al flights.

Just after the court verdict, Sabina Biran Israir C.E.O spoke about this change on several interviews and promised that the new opportunities for Israir will result in lower prices and better service for all passengers.

In the following weeks, Israir did introduce lower priced tickets for as low as 550$ for a ticket from Tel-Aviv to New York which used to cost 590$ at its lowest price points.
