Airspeed A.S. 65 Consul
Eleven Consuls (serials 2801 to 2811) and four Oxfords (2812 to 2815) obtained 1949-1950, including several brought in March 1949 from the British charter operators which supplied transport to the UN commission in Palestine before the British withdrawal. Both types referred to as Consuls. Used by 141 (114?) Sqn of Flight School as multi-engined pilot, radio and navigation trainers and light transports. Retired 1958-59. No Hebrew name given.

Early in 1956 Oxford 2812 was renumbered 2822 and 2814 became 2824, to avoid clashes with other FTS aircraft serials.
