We all know how annoying air traffic can be these days for those who experience it from the ground - not only is it a time-bomb just waiting to make our environment  go belly-up but it can also bring any conversation to a halt, if said conversation takes place under what is known as a flight corridor. But whenever if you think this is bad, here is a little story from the days where Berlin's first inner-city airport - the original Flughafen Tempelhof - became, at least for some, an ugly stain on the city's face.

Join me on an aerial time-travel escapade to Berlin in the late 1920s and beyond!
