As
the aviation industry reels under rising oil prices,
lower traffic and cargo projections and global
recessionary trends, the time is perhaps not conducive
for an Air Show. But a 100 year old tradition which has
been the cornerstone of Aerospace commerce is ready to
withstand the turbulent times.
With
the war on terrorism getting more and more
sophisticated, Israel is ready to showcase its best

The International Business Aviation
Council (IBAC) developed the International Standard for
Business Aircraft Operations (IS-BAO) in response to the

have continued to emerge and there are still a
substantial number of smaller deals at the regional
level, especially in emerging countries.
