İlker Örs: Investigation, Supervision, Writing – review & editing. Elif Eren Gültekin: Investigation, Visualization, Supervision. Harun Karakavuz: Conceptualization, Methodology, Software, Formal analysis.
Important Notes
• For studies requiring ethics committee permission, information about the permission (name of the committee, date and number) should be included in the method section and on the first/last page of the article.
• Turkish publications should include an extended English abstract of at least 15% of the article word count.

International Journal of Aeronautics and Astronautics accepts and applies the Personal Data Protection Principles accepted by Turkish Dergipark.
Twin publishing is the publication of the same article or substantially similar articles in more than one journal. The editor returns this type of article without review. After that, the editor may impose an embargo on the author attempting to twin publishing for a certain period of time, explain this situation to the public in the journal in which the author has previously published (perhaps as a simultaneous announcement with the editor of the journal that published the previous article), or apply all of these measures together.
Authors cannot submit the same manuscript to more than one journal at the same time. The editor reserves the right to consult the other editor(s) receiving the manuscript if it learns of possible simultaneous submission. In addition, the editor may return the article without review or reject it without considering the reviews, or take this decision by discussing it with the other relevant editor(s) and may decide not to accept manuscript submissions from the authors for a certain period of time. It can also write to the authors' employers or implement all of these measures together.
When readers notice a major error or inaccuracy in an article published in the International Journal of Aeronautics and Astronautics, or have any complaints about editorial content (plagiarism, duplicate articles, etc.), they can send an e-mail to ijaa@selcuk.edu.tr. can make a notification.
