 FLUG REVUE August 2004: Tempelhof to close in October
Tempelhof airport, rich in tradition, is a place of superlatives: its quadrant-shaped building façade along the north-west apron extends for an amazing 1.2 kilometres.
But Tempelhof, which by the end of the war was little more than a ravaged shell out of reinforced concrete, conquered the hearts of Berliners not on account of any aesthetically packaged gigantism, but because of the crucial role it played in the Allied airlift during the blockade of the winter of 1948/49.
Since then, the subject of Tempelhof has always been associated with a certain melancholy, but after the charter traffic was moved to Tegel North in 1968 and all traffic was relocated to the new Tegel South terminal in September 1975, the airport played only a secondary role in the Berlin airport system.

Tempelhof Aerodrome which opened in 1923 is an airfield of immense historic importance.
