Absolutely. With the level Turkish aviation industry as a whole reached today, it only makes sense. Also, if I’m not mistaken, back in the day THY (Turkish Airlines) and its subsidiaries were destined to be the designated operator(s) of the HD-19. But THY was not enthusiastic about the whole...

Spot on bro “HD-19 (Hava Dolmusu 19; Air Taxi 19) is a cancelled civil regional passenger airplane project of TAI (Turkish Aerospace Industries). It was commenced in mid90's with the aim of providing a cost effective regional passenger aircraft to fulfill domestic and international market...

If a Turkish company lose a procurement bid by a measly $3 M, I’d get really pissed off.

When you have a long career and do many “roles” 😄

DOMBİLİ!!!!!! 😍 One of the chubbiest, coolest Cat that ever lived. Here, in this iconic picture, he is posing as a proper esnaf (Turkish neighborhood merchant) in front of his store. Only his çay and beads are missing 😂 After he passed away, district municipality erected a statue of his at the...

The position where the sail sits.. with a huge real estate behind it… brings a lot of funny thoughts to your mind, doesn’t it 😉

My favorite World Cup is still ‘86 Mexico. It’s the first and so far the only WC where I watched every single game! And of course the man with the “hand of God”, Maradona 🥰

It’s only logical and make sense too. But Mr. Erdoğan is known to defy logic in the sense that he considers such acts makes him above logic. That’s why we sometimes get edgy when he declares a project ☹️

Good question. Really curious myself now. Also add bad pr on our side, as our “allies“ put us on their sight as the next villain.

Don’t know about your sig but your avatar is to die for.. or kill for.. Wait.. Citizen Robespierre ended up doing both, right 🤪

He is literally agitating people to stir up their sentiments to the point they will have cried for Turkey’s direct involvement. What he does not know and never understood for two decades now is that such populist acts are below the president of Turkey. Shame.

Offff!! Çok görkemli yahu 🥹 Splendid!

A history full of glories and falls, abundance and scarce, rich and poor that started its journey as scattered tribes of a nomadic nation somewhere in Central Asia and continuing in Anatolia, eternal homeland of Turks. A history that spans over two millennia filled with trials and tribulations...

Dude Why are you doing this? It took me a long time to get over with that bad memory and now you’re bringing it back 😂 PS: To this day, I still deeply but peacefully hate ”whose name never to be spoken” 😁

- Bro could you tell me how can I get to Moon? - Dude! Take a right turn at the light! Duh!

Any start is a good start, no matter how ”insignificant “ it may look. Gotta start somewhere, right? Tru story. I remember seeing the first so called indigenous Turkish plane, probably 40-45 years ago, named “Mavi Işık” (Blue Light). It was nothing but a generic, good old fashion crop duster 😉...

Lol was just gonna write about that one. How many batches of “32 flights” it’d take for a successful testing program? 😂 Thank you. That should settle that.

Thank you

Thank you @Afif 👍 Just didn’t go back that far in the thread. My bad. But is it the project-18?

@Gessler , @Nilgiri I’ll try to connect the dots here, so bear with me please. There is a rumor of a “Project - 18” and also news of this new wide/huge radar that is about to enter service around early 2024. The radar‘s naval variant will require a substantial space on a mast. And Indian navy...
