The date was when one was already saying &ldquo;vesein tal umotor&rdquo; in Israel but not yet in the Diaspora. During the flight, whilst already over Europe, a minyan was arranged to daven minchah on the airplane (in an area of the plane which did not disturb other passengers). I recollect someone questioning whether to say &ldquo;vesein tal umotor&rdquo; or &ldquo;vesein berachah&rdquo;. However, the general custom is that since one has already begun to say &ldquo;vesein tal umotor&rdquo; whilst in Israel, one should continue to say it when outside Israel.
