Comment
The catch of the day ! This one easily caught my eye : a blocked cargo flight from Turkey over Greece instead of openly using commercial or Turkish military aircraft like the air bridge to Libya judiciously going around Greece via Antalya. I immediately thought : I bet I know where this one is going. Obviously I took the bet -- a win-win. When I saw the new Malinese government returning home from Istanbul a few days ago I cheekily remarked "another Turkish client regime" so this could very well be the first delivery of Turkish delights to Mali. I won the bet ! The E-Cargo 757 -- a Russian cargo "start-up" founded in 2018 -- landed in Mali's capital.Operations
