The Turks speak of a simple reconnaissance flight over International air space.

Ankara provokes beyond measure – Air chief marshal Ozturk violates the Greek FIR on footage, flying an F-16 himself.

What we know about the daily Turkish violations in the Aegean so far, was the number of Turkish aircraft invade Greek airspace, whether they are armed and the areas that are moving.

However, the identity of the Turkish pilots was kept as a completely secret by the Turks and so did the warfare fate of the aircrafts.

All this changed today, with the Turkish state very carefully and in a very formal way admitting that violations are not a task by young pilots, but the main choice of the Turkish leadership.

By showing the leader of the Turkish aviation Lieutenant Ozturk piloting a fighter aircraft on the video below and making violations in the Aegean, the Turks want to send the message that the illegal flights in the Aegean are perfectly legitimate.

Besides, according to them in the video they uploaded Gen. Ozturk “patrols” in international airspace, while it is clear that he violate traffic rules and openly violating Greek airspace.
