They travel among them in their own jet, helicopter and yachts. They socialize with the Henry Fords, Jackie and Ari Onassis, Rainier and Grace, and assorted Rothschilds-that is, when the head of the household is not busy talking Fiat business with Charles de Gaulle or Aleksei Kosygin...

Though Callas was most frequently photographed aboard the yacht, it had been Tina who inspired "Telis," as his friends call...
...order to evacuate 140,000 stranded Jews from Arab lands. More recently, during last summer's short but savage war, 60% of El Al crews were mobilized, while the rest moved military cargoes from Europe to Israel. "El Al is not only a national airline," explains President Ben-Ari, a scarred veteran of the 1948 Israeli-Arab war. "It is a national instrument in time of emergency...
