Comment: ABOUT – The shame of Berlin

The future Berlin airport is now celebrated the topping-out ceremony for a new Terminal. How, please? And the TÜV has started a large-scale test of all systems. Henrik Böhme still remains skeptical.

Neither passengers nor aircraft are in sight at the airport ABOUT weeds sprouting long

Certainly the new airport of Berlin will be renamed again. Willy-Brandt-Airport-to-one (according to its own understanding) much more famous social-Democrats by the name of Klaus Wowereit. The time was the reigning mayor of Berlin, and was made famous by three sets: the first is: “I’m gay and that’s good.” Secondly: “Berlin is poor but sexy.” Thirdly, “I will build the airport to the end.”

For first, he deserves respect. For a second, a Smile. For thirdly, but you should tar him and feather. Because he wanted to bless in Berlin (and Brandenburg), with a new airport would have the fingers of and professionals rank, then the Airport would be first, already in operation, and, secondly, at a manageable cost framework remained, and thirdly, the Image of Berlin is dramatically less damaged.

Of escalators and smoke systems

If this airport is landed on the never been on a plane, anything, then it’s a shame that for political failure, for hush-hush, hanky-panky, for scapegoats, for waste. Above all, he must be a monument for eternity: Let’s never do something like that again, a politician! As Wowereit of Berlin, Germany, to ridicule give up. A how Wowereit Berlin laughs, maybe. But about the Fail-Airport and the whole world laughs in the meantime.

First calculations date back to the last Millennium – okay 1995: That sounds positive. The opening was planned 2831 days, for the 30. October 2011. It is the first of six shifts of the appointment followed. For the second opening attempt on the 24. In may 2012, there were already 40.000 (!!!) Guests are loaded, and there are colleagues who already had Tickets for flights to BER on 3. As of June 2012, should land first aircraft. The cancellation came three weeks before.

The defects lists should be printed out on paper for a medium-sized German forest. All the other papers such as reports, consultant contracts and terminations, process files. And what were the deficiencies (and they are) – with the exception of the smoke extraction system (in the fold of “the Monster circles” are called, with all the misery began), Since some of the levels were escalators too short. Since rainwater from the facades in the Openings of the ventilation system float according to the wind direction. Because the wrong (not fire safe) anchors were installed. Tube and pipe fittings did not fit the Underfloor fuelling on the field together. Some stair railings, several feet were missing, there was no data connection to the fire brigade, and caution: more Than 1000 trees were incorrectly planted!

And Willy Brandt?

You might find this funny, but it’s just sad. This may have seen some politicians in his delusions of grandeur otherwise, because after all, it is only the taxpayers who have to pay the bill eventually: And which is a gigantic fail. Once 1.7 billion euros, the cost climbed now to 7.3 billion euros. As of right now. Opened is not yet.

It’s bound to be good, now with the new Terminal started. Would be funny if the is more finished than the Rest of the airport. The, should he will actually be opened in the coming year (bet, that?) would have to be directly placed under monument protection – with so much now obsolete technology, which is built in. After all: In the past year, already 750 monitors were replaced. The old things had geflimmert for six years just like that and had reached the end of their life time. Cost: half a Million euros. Who cares baby?

In addition, you should ask the descendants of Willy Brandt again, whether or not the airport should really be named after him. The old socialist has not really deserved.
