Pioneers of Aviation
Is it due to the famous often sung about ” Berlin air”, that since hundreds of years myriads of aviation pioneers and later plane producing companies were attracted by Berlin:
like Otto Lilienthal, Hans Grade, Manfred von Richthofen, Melli Beese, Rumpler, Fokker or Luft Hansa AG, that was founded at the Hotel Kaiserhof in 1926?
Quite a few traces from those pioneer times still exist, some you will find in the popular travel guides, others are off the beaten track waiting to be recaptured by nature.
