West Berlin Tempelhof Airport in 1968 with Pan American Airways jetliner taxiing towards takeoff

Closed since 2008 it was the centre of the Berlin Airlift of 1948–49. One of the airport's most distinctive features is its huge, canopy-style roof extending over the apron, able to accommodate most contemporary airliners in the 1950s, 1960s and early 1970s, protecting passengers from the elements. Tempelhof Airport's main building was once among the twenty largest buildings on earth.
