Ciao guys !
Last Tuesday there was a special guest here at Berlin-Tegel airport: Lufthansa´s latest A380 D-AIMI named "Berlin". After the official ceremony the plane was christened by the Mayor of the City of Berlin. I was very happy to see this giant once again in Tegel .
So, and here we go...
Arrival at 9.45am.
A warm welcome... these are the flags of the City of Berlin: red-white-red with the well known Berlin bear in the center.
In the background you can see the famous airport terrace... a lot of people came to see this big bird, but not as many as while the first A380 visit in Tegel back in 2010.
The Mayor of the City of Berlin
Push-back...
... and water salute
The C-17 arrived about 2h earlier... the A380 departed for an one hour during round trip over the city (at 3.000ft!)
Finally the A380 departed to Frankfurt at 5pm... doing a low-pass and shaking with its wings to say goodbye !!!
That´s it, I hope you enjoyed the short story.
Greets,
Paul
