IAF cuts down pilot training hours due to reservists not showing up — report
Channel 12 reports that the Israel Air Force’s flight school has slightly cut down flight hours for pilots in training due to the large number of reservist instructors who are failing to shop up for service.
Many reservist pilots have stopped volunteering for army service in protest of the government’s judicial overhaul, which they believe will cause grievous harm to democracy.
Reporter Nir Dvori says military officials insist the reduction in flight hours per pilot is limited and, for now, is not causing serious harm to the training process.
