Israeli Woman
Wants Pilot Course
Jerusalem (JTA) — An Israeli
woman has taken her case to Is-
rael's High Court of Justice in an
effort to gain entry into the Israeli
Air Force's combat pilot training
course.
All previous efforts by Alice
Miller, 23, to get into the course
have been unsuccessful.
The South African-born Ms.
Miller is a licensed civil pilot and
recently completed a degree in
aeronautical engineering, with
Ms. Miller's attorneys argued
that air force policy should be flex-
ible in order to offer the same op-
portunities to men and women.
Furthermore, said attorney Neta
Ziv Goldman, sex discrimination
would limit Ms. Miller's future,
both during her army career and
in civilian life.
The head of the air force's man-
power division, Brig. Gen.
Yitzhak Amitai, told the jus-
tices that there was a failed effort

But like all female Israeli sol-
diers, Miller, who is currently in
officers training school, is barred
by military regulations from corn-
bat duty.
There are no women pilots,
even in non-combat squadrons,
in Israel's air force. All pilots must
first earn their combat wings, ef-
fectively keeping women out of
the course.
When the court heard the pe-
tition brought by Ms. Miller, the
arguments did not address ques-
tions surrounding women in corn-
bat, or the problems surrounding
the possibility of their being tak-
ing prisoner of war.
Instead, the arguments focused
on military regulations, which ac-
knowledge the intrinsic difference
between the sexes — that women
have children and men do not.
A state official supporting the
air force's view argued that it was
too expensive to put women
through flight training, particu-
larly when their careers could be
cut short by pregnancy.
Military regulations require
men to do reserve duty until the
- age of 54, while women are only
required to do so until age 38, at-
torney Uzi Fogelman told the
court. They are exempted from
service altogether for pregnancy.

the flight-training courses.
Ms. Miller's attorney noted
that women flew in the Israeli Air
Force in its early years, citing
transport pilot Lt. Yael Horn, who
served in Israel's 1956 and 1967
wars.
"This is no provision [in the
regulations] which prohibits
women in combat duty," said
Naomi Hazan, a Meretz Knesset
member who accompanied Ms.
Miller at the hearing. "What
we're testing is exactly that."
The five-justice panel will give
its ruling at a later date.
