A 74-year-old man and his 17-year-old granddaughter were moderately injured today (Saturday) after they were forced to make an emergency landing with a light aircraft in an open area near Moshav Elifelet near Rosh Pina.
The MDA team evacuated them to Rambam Hospitals in Haifa and Ziv in Safed.
MDA paramedic Yossi Halabi and MDA medic Yigal Ben Odiz said that when they arrived at the scene, they saw the plane upside down on its roof with the girl walking next to it and the man still inside when he was fully conscious.
"We rescued him with suitable equipment and put them both in an intensive care unit to perform full medical examinations. The man was evacuated to Rambam Hospital by an MDA helicopter that landed nearby and the girl was evacuated in an intensive care unit to Ziv Hospital," the two said.
