The flights of tirese machines astounded the thousands of spectators who had gathered to watch. What did these observers drink of this new technology? Did they believe that these machines simply provided a platform for stunts or did drey believe that they had serious implicadons for mankind or, more specifically, for the Ottoman Empire? At that time, no one drought, of course, to poll the spectators on their reactions to drese flying machines. Indeed, to my knowledge, the recollecdons of only one such spectator have been published. By spectators I mean the subjects of the Ottoman Empire-Turks, Greeks, Armenians, Arabs and others-for there were also many foreigners, that is, Europeans, present. These latter lived mainly In the Escort Uo To Aircraft European colony in the Pera, modem Beyoğlu, section of Istanbul. This was the commercial hub of the city, where powerful foreign banks and embassies were located. Their reports of these flights provide a unique insight into the impression that they made on dtose who witnessed them. Turkish was, of course, not only the language of the dominant and ruling element of tire Ottoman Empire, but it was also widely understood among various minority groups within the state[ 1 ]. Accordingly, Turkish newspapers were the most numerous and had tire widest circulation. With respect to Turkish newspapers, I shall concentrate on the three leading dailies inwhich, in order of importance, were the following: İkdam, Tanin, and Yeni Tasvîr-i Efkâr. I shall also add a few details from Yeni Gazetewhich was representative of the second tier of Turkish newspapers[ 2 ]. Founded inİkdam was devoted to politics, economic issues and literature. Its circulation in was about 40,[ 3 ]. It was above all a political paper[ 4 ]. The old newspaper Tasvîr-i Efkâr was reestablished as Yeni New Tasvîr-i Efkâr in by one of the most important Turkish journalists of the time, Ebüzziya Tevfik. This newspaper described itself as a journal of independent opinion and supporter of continuous progress. It soon became critical of the CUP[ 5 ]. Yeni Gazete generally focused on politics. The average circulation of Tanin and was at least 20, In Escort Uo To Aircraft, greater Istanbul had a population of perhaps a bit more than half a million, but most of this population was illiterate. Among these newspapers, Yeni Tasvîr-i Efkâr devoted tire most attention to aviation and the flights of de Caters and Blériot. Many of the articles in Yeni Tasvîr-i Efkâr on this subject are signed with tire initials V. No articles on aviation in any of the other Turkish papers cited in this study are signed. It is worth noting that Velid Ebüzziya and his older brother Talha set up a darkroom for photography, effectively the first for an Istanbul newspaper, in and in the same year Velid apparendy took the first aerial photographs of Istanbul[ 6 ]. Yeni Tasvîr-i Efkâr' s extensive coverage of the flights of are translated in full in the Appendix. As for newspapers published by foreigners or European interests, the most important was The Levant Herald. It was established by a Bridsh subject, with the help of the Bridsh Embassy, in and ran until It concentrated on uade and diplomádé issues between the European powers and the Ottoman Empire. At that time, French was the language of trade and diplomacy for the European colony. Indeed, even the Ottoman high society in Beyoğlu spoke French and imitated Parisian social graces. The Levant Herald took a great, but rather different, interest in the flights of de Caters and, above all, Blériot. Apart from this different emphasis, its accounts of these flights add further details to those of the Turkish press and help complete the picture of those events. In order to compare and contrast the Turkish view of the significance of these flights with the European, I have also included a full translation of the reports of The Levant Herald in the same appendix[ 7 ]. I have supplemented this newspaper with a few references from the Moniteur Orientalwhich began in as the Oriental Escort Uo To Aircraft and continued through Init too was published in French with English summaries and concentrated on economic and political issues, but promoted French and Greek interests[ 8 ]. The narrative of the flights of Baron de Caters and Blériot given below is a synthesis of the reports from all these newspapers, but Yeni Tasvîr-i Efkâr and The Levant Herald provide the heart of the story, the former especially for de Caters and the latter for Blériot. As the twentieth century began, Sultan Abdülhamid II was completing a quarter-century as the absolute monarch of the Ottoman Empire. He had come to power in following a Financial crisis left to him by his predecessors who had spent enormous sums and borrowed heavily to build an army and navy strong enough to fend off the European powers and preserve the integrity of the empire. The result was bankruptcy, and in Abdülhamid officially handed the finances of the Ottoman Empire over to European investors who were to administer Escort Uo To Aircraft Ottoman Public Debt. Meanwhile, the European powers continued to chip away at Ottoman territory.

He subsequently ruled as an absolute monarch. It may be the most important issue, but for some reason this subject has not received the attention of our local newspapers, which are more than preoccupied with coverage of the usual concerns of our domestic and political affairs. Yeni Gazete generally focused on politics. Nevertheless, because the Baron was under some pressure from the criticism that had been directed against him, reasonably or unreasonably, he did not hesitate because of the partially unfavorable weather, or pay any attention to the late hour. He was a strong supporter of the development of Japanese on-board aviation, which translated into the construction or modernization of such ships as Kaga, Akagi, Hiryu, Soryu and Zuikaku. And that afternoon he and his wife returned to Paris on the Orient Express. Afterwards another aircraft, a red R. At the time of launch, the unit was armed with 4 mm guns and 12 25 mm cannons. Nevertheless, he began to win fame At the Frankfurt races where he had surpassed Blériot, with respect to time aloft and altitude, and won first prize. As for technology, he was an avid patron of the telegraph system, for example, which already crisscrossed the empire and had become an important instrument of his autocratic rule. One could perhaps agree that all the people of Istanbul were ignorant of this, but we are of course aggrieved at such a situation that reflects poorly on our venerable and well-known hospitality. Weather permitting, he will continue his attempts at ascents here until he matches the extent of his successful flights in Europe. His flying machine flew perfectly at an altitude of meters. The early morning had again been calm and clear and a torrent of people had surged toward the site.
