Portions of the arid Negev, an area once written off as largely uncultivable, today grow fruit, flowers and winter vegetables eagerly sought by European markets.

The 18-year-old European aerospace consortium still loses money on every plane it sells, but its British, French, West German and Spanish co- owners have been willing to subsidize costs in order to develop a robust European aircraft industry.
