Forty-seven Air Force pilots have resigned in Turkey in January 2014, Turkish Defence Minister Ismet Yilmaz said today, Turkish newspaper Milliyet reported.
The minister has not given a reason, according to the newspaper.
Earlier, Yilmaz reported that 300 Air Force pilots have resigned in Turkey over two years.

"F-16 and F-4 fighter pilots resigned," he said. The minister also stressed that the resignation of these pilots has led to a personnel shortage in the Turkish Air Force."The resignation of the pilots will not weaken the Air Force of the country,"Yilmaz added.
