Air Show Izmir 2011 Turkey - 100 Years Turkish Air Force (2011-06-05)

The official events already started in January 2011, but cumulated for the public in the International air show, hosted at the 2nd Main Jet Base Command (Çigli/Izmir) on 04 and 05 June 2011. As Turkey is very secretive and restricted with everything regarding their military, it is no wonder that the spotterdays offered on the day before and after the event was soon fully booked with 1000 (!) enthusiasts wanting to attend.

The Air Show Türkiye Izmir 2011 was a distinguished activity among the centennial activities of the Turkish Air Force. Of course the main focus of the flight program was hoped to be based around the different aircraft of the Turkish Air Force, and the announced "Turkish Air Force Inventory Pass", which included Cougar helicopters, T-41, SF-260, T-37, KT-1, T-38, CN-235, C-160, C-130, KC-135, F-16, F4-E/2020, NF-5 2000 and T-34 promised to be an excellent opportunity of aircraft rarely seen in the sky. Amongst them the TuAF is one of the few remaining Air Forces to use the T-37 and T-38 trainer aircraft.
