US Edition'I Haven’t Seen Penny Wong Shed a Single Tear’: Ley Slams Wong
Moshe Gordon flew his friend Reuven Morrison's body from Sydney to Melbourne, with support from air marshals and engineers, honoring Morrison with circuits over Bondi Beach before burial.
- Last week, Moshe Gordon flew Reuven Morrison's body from the coroner's facility to Melbourne, circling Bondi Beach at the Morrison family's request to spare a 15-hour road journey.
- After the Bondi Hanukkah attack that killed 15 people, the Coalition, Ley and John Howard criticized the government’s response to antisemitism, fueling public vigils and political debate.
- Gordon, a pilot with decades of experience, has flown for more than 30 years and volunteered with Angel Flight while engineers at Melbourne hangar removed four seats and installed anchor points as air marshals arranged a private hangar at Bankstown Airport, Sydney.
- After air traffic was halted, Gordon flew two slow circuits over Bondi Beach, Sydney with Morrison's body aboard, and on arrival in Melbourne, Chevra Kadisha prepared him for burial, fulfilling the Morrison family’s request.
- For Gordon, the flight was both unbearable and meaningful, describing it as the most bitter yet a final gift that involved broad help from the Chevra Kadisha, non-Jewish airport staff and air traffic control, and recalling Reuven Morrison as a man of action.
