Tempelhof Airport in Berlin, Germany (1923 - 2008) was one of the world's 1st beautiful Art-Deco airports from the 1920s/30s "Golden Years of Aviation". It spans the 20th & 21st centuries, from an aviation pioneer hub, a monumental Nazi prestige project, the iconic Cold War Berlin Airlift, & finally, to its modern reincarnation as a massive public urban park. Come learn all about it in pictures & in MSFS. Hope you enjoy. Cheers.Note: The text words are all mine. I then use an AI voice for those who wish to listen as well as watch.
