A primary-source archival collection of technical documentation from Israel's principal aircraft and aerospace manufacturers — Israel Aerospace Industries (IAI), Elbit Systems, and Bet Shemesh Engines Ltd. (BSEL).

This Living Collection covers one of the most innovative aviation industries to emerge in the post-war era. From the IAI Kfir and Lavi fighter programmes to the IAI Astra/Westwind business jet family, the Arava STOL transport, and the Galaxy wide-body conversion, Israeli aerospace engineering produced a remarkable range of original designs and licensed developments. Documents are presented as archival, static-copy editions fixed at their original publication dates — flight manuals, checklists, engineering reports, and technical references — intended for historical research, flight simulation, museum restoration, and educational use only.

Not approved for active airworthiness maintenance under FAA 14 CFR § 43.13, EASA Part-M, or equivalent international regulations. Operators of active aircraft must use current, revision-controlled publications from the Type Certificate holder or an authorized distributor.
