Turk Hava Kurumu at Antalya

[Sjaak]

Normally during the hot summer season there's 1 or 2 THK CL215's based at Antalya which are difficult to photograph. For the occasional and unexpected flghts the old military runway is used. Once on the ground the aircraft are parked on the remote former military ramp. Last week however no less than 6 examples where to be seen being TC-TKV, TKZ, TKM, TKL, TKT and TKK.
As there was a considerable forest fire threath we noted several flights made by these beauties. Here's 3 of them with TC-TKZ still in the livery of it's appearance in the Sylvester Stallone movie Expendables 2, shot in 2011.
