Simple.
It gives PLAAF a chance to observe the performance of American planes and tactics employed by Western pilots in combat.

Glad to see Pakistan's two most friendliest nations working well with each other.
I hope this is the beginning of a great friendship between China and Turkey.
Kevin Rudd has gone and the new Govt of Ms.Julia Gillard is staunchly Pro-US.
I seriously think this is fake news. It has not been reported on any chinese media and in western media, they always say we flew Mig-29s... we do not have a single Mig-29. they also said we flew Mig-20s... theres no such thing as a Mig-20, migs are odd numbered. even if they didn't get this wrong, theres a 4500 km distance between china and turkey with no friendly tankers along the way.
same as the chinese made announce with russia about wwII few days ago. not major median put this on head line or even clear sign.I seriously think this is fake news.

The U.S. also supplies the Zionist entity (which is violating over 200 UN resolutions) with advanced weapons. Why is the U.S. always allowed to do this without any "objections" from anyone while Iran is always demonized for supplying Hamas and Hizbullah (the victims and freedom fighters) with arms? Surely, suppying the victims of Israeli terror and aggression and oppression makes much more sense. Anyone with half a brain and an open mind will see the hypocrisy and evil intentions of the U.S. government.Turkey has every right to choose who they wish to do their excerise.
THe US have been doing it with other countries for years.
The Anatolian Eagle cancelation happened before Erdogan send a Turkish Trojan Horse towards Israel packed with his own selected few (and some activists). I must admit though, hell of move by Turkey which took the Israelis by a big surprise. It serves the Israeli government right; they should have known who they are really in bed with all these years and what they are capable of.
BTW, that had absolutely nothing to do with providing aid to poor Palestinians. It was stunt by Erdogan to not only get the Muslims worlds support (and domestic votes), but to effectively shift the center of Islam (sort of speak) from Tehran to Ankara. Palestinians now think that Turkey is going to save them from the Israelis; little do they know that Turkey, just like the Arab leaders, is only using them as cannon fodder.
I am not aware of the incident that you used as an example but I am quite sure US will have a statement or an explanation or an apology in that regards. Also your example is not relevant to question about the future of the strategic ties between USA and Turkey.
Now why would you say that....US has every right to find out why one of its important strategic ally that provides airbase for its troops transitions to Iraq and Afghanistan (not to mention all supply routes for fuel and water,etc to the war zone) has gone bunkers and now deals with Iran, China, Syria. They also not so happy how Turkey rudely kicked the Israelis out of the Anatolian exercise last year but now China is OK?
Turkey needs to do some explaining as into where they actually stand as an ally of US which shares important classified intelligence with.
Well the same can be said about China. They complain when the U.S does exercises with South Korea.
That's because South Korea is right on China's border and the US military exercise is only 500 km within Beijing.
More important is that Beijing is within the strike range of missiles and aircrafts from USS Washington in the Yellow Sea, that itself is sensitive enough.
