In May 1991, on a Sabbath, the second \u201cmiracle\u201d airlift occurred. In \u201cOperation Solomon\u201d. Military, civilian and private planes \u2013 anything that could fly the distance \u2013 took off from Israel, landed in Ethiopia, refuelled while loading up with passengers flew back to Israel, refuelled as the passengers disembarked and flew back again.<\/p>
