F9, Hocam (pronounced Ho-jam) is a term of respect. Normally used when referring to someone with respected qualifications and probably but not necessarily older. Doctors, professors, religious clerics and the like are often addressed that way. On the flight deck I would guess that a training captain might be addressed that way but whether it is more widely used I couldn't say. Info from Mrs EA who is a native Turkish speaker but with no aviation background.
