This is just the latest event.

Russia did violate its airspace. Unfortunately, might makes right in this case.

The Russians knew damned well they were flying over Turkish airspace, and the Turks knew damned well that was a Russian aircraft doing it. Both probably learned their lesson, at least in regards to this issue. 1SG Private RallyPoint Member Tue, 28 Jun 2016 15:47:56 -0400 2016-06-28T15:47:56-04:00 2016-06-28T08:36:46-04:00
