DID YOU KNOW??? Israeli Air Force was created in May 1948 with only 18 pilots, 12 of whom were foreigners and WWII vets recruited to help Israel form as a new state. The first planes were small ones, purchased from Czechoslovakia, and for many of the pilots it was their first time flying these planes. Today Israel has the third strongest air force in the world! Chanichim built helium balloon airplanes and raced them in honor of Israel’s amazing Air Force.
