Özet:

In the Picardie Manevres held in France in 1910, the first time the use of the aircraft in the practical sense addressed the topics of establishing an aviation agency, the supply of aircraft and the training of piloting to the members of the army, as well as the Ottoman State. While the investigations are ongoing in line with these objectives and purposes, the Italian first use of aircraft in the Battle of Trablusgarp has accelerated the aircraft supply and corporation work in the Ottoman State. In this context, work has been launched with the aim of establishing a Tairecity Commission and the Tayyare Mektebi and Center by the Harbiye Nazareti for the organization of the aviation activities. It is seen that many work have been done to date on the first process of the formation of the Ottoman Army. In the work in this field, the view was suggested that the "Air Commission" created under the Presidency of Kurmay Colonel Süreyya (Ilmen) who performed very important tasks and works in the establishment process of Turkish aviation was the first agency of Turkish military aviation and that the Tayyare Commission was formed on 1 June 1911. The publications expressing this opinion have shown as a source the work "Tayyarecilik and Balonculuk History in Turkey" which is a report prepared by Kurmay Colonel Süreyya (Ilmen) Mr. and included in the General Kurmay ATASE Archive. But in the report and work of Kurmay Colonel Süreyya Ilmen, despite the fact that it did not give the date relating to the establishment of the Tayyare Commission, the work on the history of aviation was given as the date of the establishment of the Tayyare Commission on 1 June 1911. In this article, the first Tayyare Commission, which was recognized as the organization of the Air Force, was established in the framework of the archive documents in which Kurmay Colonel Süreyya Ilmen was also appointed on June 1, 1911, and was established under the presidency of Kurmay Colonel Ismail Mr. in the 2nd Branch of the Erkan-i Harbiye Department. The article also detailed that the commission established under the Presidency of Kurmay Colonel Süreyya (Ilmen), one of the most important symbols of the establishment process of Turkish aviation in March 1912, was formed with the purpose of the establishment of the Tayyare Mektep and the Center. With this work, the establishment of the Turkish military aviation is re-evaluated in the light of new documents.
