Although not particularly all aviation, and kinda' small, the "check-point charlie" museum in Berlin is a "can't miss." Some people really wanted out of East Germany, badly, after you see some of the things they did to cross over. -- Jim in NC |

Don't miss the high voltage electrical demonstration. David Johnson |

"Berlin Court Says Tempelhof Airport Must Be Closed Next Year" http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601100&sid=aN9S5GAT7Rv0&refer=germany (From the story...) Berlin Mayor Klaus Wowereit greeted the timeframe for the planned closure of Tempelhof, which opened in 1923 and was later expanded by the Nazi government, according to a faxed statement. Tempelhof played a role in the first major crisis of the Cold War when the Soviet Union's blockade of West Berlin prompted a humanitarian airlift by the allies -- the U.S., U.K. and France -- from June 1948 to May 1949. At the height of the airlift, allied aircraft landed at the rate of almost one per minute. Montblack |

Thanks Michael Coates If your son is showing an interest in WW2 and other war events, you should also visit Ausschwitz, Dachau, Mauthausen,..... For more information contact either the nearest Jewish comunity or Israel embassy in your country. George |
