32nd Anniversary of the Establishment of the TRNC

By now most of us have probably heard the load sound of the supersonic aircrafts flying in the sky as preparations are continuing to mark the 32nd anniversary of the establishment of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.

The Turkish aerobatics team, the Turkish Stars and the F-16 Solotürk will be performing above the TRNC’s skies on Sunday, 15th November, as part of events held to mark the day.

Turkish Stars fly with eight Canadair NF-5 fighter planes obtained from the Royal Netherlands Air Force, making them the only aerobatics team with formations of eight supersonic aircrafts.

According to information provided by the Cyprus Turkish Security Forces the Turkish Stars and Solotürk will be flying over the Dr. Fazıl Küçük Boulevard in Lefkoşa during the main ceremony. The jets will also fly over the Cengiz Topel Monuement in Lefke.

Later in the afternoon, the aerobatics team and Solotürk will be putting on a show above the Girne harbour and promenade.

Submarines will be anchored off the coast of Girne and at the Gazimağusa harbour and they will be open to visitors on Sunday between 10am-12 noon and 2-5pm.
