“One of the oldest roads in the world runs from Jaffa, up into the Judean Hills: The Old Jaff-Jerusalem road over which the Apostles walked many times and over which the Crusaders marched. But instead of travelling up to the Holy City on the back of a donkey or on foot, we jump into our plane and make the trip through the air. And we are the first people to ever make a pilgrimage to the Holy City through the sky.”

-Lowell Thomas
“With Allenby in Palestine” (1919)
