Extremely Rare Turkish Republic Pilot Badge with a Certificate. 60 mm(width) x 50 mm(height). Badge is in great condition for its age and rarity, only small traces of wearing. This badge is modeled after a WW1 pilot’s badge, and the inscription at the top of the badge where the tughra would have been says “TC (Turkish Republic) – In memory of 10 years”. Taken by itself, I would have said that the already badge is a unique and unexampled item, but the document tells a much interesting story. The document is a graduation diploma from the Eskiehir aviation school. What they have done in this case is scratch out the usual wording and written in that this is a special award in recognition of 10 years’ service, to a “Tecnikci” or technician, who(probably) was an employee of the aviation school. That confirms that the badge is probably one of a kind. It is very interesting and unusual that the awarded military man has a Russian surname. Most likely heRussian pilot? Got into the Turkish military aviation school after the civil war in Russia, fleeing to Turkey from the Bolsheviks. The badge depicted on the diploma is – one would presume – something that was awarded to graduates of the aviation school. Obviously it is also modeled after the Ottoman pilot’s badge, but with the foundation date of the empire removed, and the “TC” or Turkish Republic cypher added at the top. This confirms that such badges were used by the Republic after the change to Latin writing at the end of 1928. Translation of the diploma. Pilotluk derecesi/piloting degree. Rasitlik derecesi/aviation degree. Teknik derecesi/ technical degree: 1. A Diplom to a flyer graduated from school of Aviation. This diplom is presented for the 10th Anniversary of Turkish Republic.
