About

Between the operations room and the cockpit

Aviation brings together my work in operations, my flight training and my involvement in the virtual aviation community.

I enjoy the practical side of aviation: seeing the whole picture, paying attention to the details and understanding how everything comes together for a flight.

Operations

I hold an Air Operations Officer licence issued by the Civil Aviation Authority of Israel and work in a cargo airline operations control centre. My work involves real-time operational support, coordination, monitoring changes and keeping track of the overall operation.

Learning to fly

Alongside my work in operations, I am training for a private pilot licence on the Cessna 172 in Herzliya. Learning to fly gives me a new perspective on the world I know from the operations room.

Community

I have served as Deputy Division Director at VATIL since June 2025, building on my involvement in virtual aviation, instruction and community activities.
