That´s All... Brother

The weather is "bombing" aka HOT, oh, I love it!!!

Ingo doesn´t like this weather so much, he has to work in the heat.
So he´d left earlier and´d heard on the radio there is a Raisin Bomber (or "Candy Bomber") visiting Airport Braunschweig on the occasion of it being 70 years the Western Allies helped big with mastering the Berlin Blockade.

("The name came from the fact that some pilots started voluntarily to throw sweets and candy (and, presumably, also raisins) on little tinkered parachutes out of the window to children lined up on the edges of the West Berlin airfields watching the planes." (Wiki))

See here: The Bomber arrived at lunch-time and ... info!!! Nada online, so, me, learning to call people I don´t know braved up and called the airport - it´ll be there at least another hour, so we jumped in the car and went!

I certainly expected such a bomber as shown above when we went to the Museum in Perth / Bull Creek and I was a tad disappointed to "only" find the W 292847!

Yes, I do understand Airport Berlin Tempelhof is small, yet... I was a tad disappointed!

Not that our airport is large...

Well, it must´ve been very hard times back then and I am glad and thankful I wasn´t in there and that there was this huge help!!

As you probably know from The Simpsons... pilots do drink beer - have you seen the blue/yellow Wolters-brolly? ;-)

Lion of the day:

Wee, that´s rather wine is it?!

"That´s all... Brother" was the name of this aircraft. It guided over 800 other aircrafts on D-Day.

From fighting "Germans" to helping them... people are people, right?
Sorry if I gave you a terrible ear-worm!, I got it, also!...
