    2. Nothing wrong with this enthusiasm. Actually the civil and military aircraft situation in Iran is so hot that the story with Turkey is in the background. How can the country which received F-14 jet fighter and actually achieved world record with non-stop flight from Tehran to New York in the 70's using Boeing 747 SP (12 hours and 15 minutes), now be in such a poor condition?
