I guess you were being tongue (firmly) in cheek referring to the well trained ex air-farce pilots from Turkey. Ask the Syrians . . . . although the Turkish Govt did defend the pilot saying "these things are beyond control due to the speed of the aircraft", no doubt like a stall being beyond control of the crew in AMS due to the rad-alt failure. Isn't denial a wonderful tonic from dreary old reality.
Anyone who worked there has more than a few stories to tell vis a vis training & well trained

Of course Turkish do advertise themselves as "the best airline in Europe", yep, but c- in Geography chaps, and thats before we start on "culture".
