I haven't seen or heard fighter jets in years if not decades. And now three times within two weeks. I wonder what they are doing in Northern Germany. Ich hab seit Jahren, wenn nicht sogar Jahrzehnten keine Kampfjets mehr gesehen oder gehört. Und nun binnen zwei Wochen schon dreimal. Ich frage mich, was die in Norddeutschland tun.

(Picture vom 2006) Yesterday the last commercial flight arrived and departed from Berlin Tegel Airport „Otto Lilienthal“. It is now officially closed after 70 years of service. The new Berlin Brandenburg Airport opened for commercial traffic on 31 October 2020 after 14 years of construction time. Tegel Airport was built in 1948 during the Berlin Airlift within 90 days as an Airfield. Although change is inevitable and the noise reduction for the city will be immense this is also somehow sad. Tegel Airport is an essential part of Berlin's history and its identity. I loved to stand on the parking deck of a nearby shopping mall right in line with the runways watching planes and letting my mind wander.
