So with the ski slope, are the Turks planning to purchase F-35Bs?

More likely a training platform for the 2018 winter olympics.......

Regarding the ski jump, allegedly it is an integral part of the hull design engineering. At least that’s what the Aussies said in denying that they were going to buy F-35Bs to go along with their As and use it as a true light carrier.

But it will certainly allow the Turks and Aussies to operate F-35s, if they choose to do so at some point down the road.
