A small model plane, constructed by an Israeli aviation enthusiast, gave Jordanians somewhere near the Israeli border a real scare, according to press reports here today from Amman.
The model, carried over a refugee camp by wind currents, was thought by the excited Arabs to be an Israeli secret weapon – a “pilotless midget plane.” Fears were allayed when the tiny craft crashed to earth.
