Remark Photographer
9th July 2006 - FIFA World Cup™ Final 2006 in Berlin. You see a part(!) of the apron full with Bizzjets and Props. I have counted 194 jets, 50 props and 3 airliners so far. It was a spectacular and very busy day (round about 900 movements) for this historic airport in the middle of Berlin. By the way: Italy won after a penalty showdown... (Canon 20D @ 17mm)

Best! RIP dear THF

A visitor from Australia posted Tue April 15, 2008:
Wow imagen how busy that would get after the world cup. The air trafffic would be crazy.

A visitor from Germany posted Wed December 26, 2007:
Damn, What would I give to be a owner of just one of this Jets

A visitor from Germany posted Tue October 9, 2007:
Incredible! Never had seen so many planes at the same place at the same time before! Very impressive!

A visitor from India posted Thu February 1, 2007:
Awesome

A visitor from United States posted Sat December 16, 2006:
I say this has to be one of the most unique shots on airliners.net. Gotta love how their lined up like toys.

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Wed December 13, 2006:
You've gotta love Tempelhof. Long Live Tempelhof!

A visitor from France posted Sun November 5, 2006:
Very nice photo ! I love the placement of the airplaines ! Great Shot !

A visitor from Australia posted Tue October 24, 2006:
This pic is just Too Awesome to Describe...!!!

A visitor from France posted Mon August 7, 2006:
Any picture later in the day, or including the southern apron? I was there too, and left at 4 am after hours of queueing... What a day!

A visitor from Germany posted Sat July 29, 2006:
Wow - shows how Tempelhof is still important. Hope it will never be closed as planned by the airport company.

A visitor from Germany posted Sun July 23, 2006:
And they want to close this fantastic airport? Hard to believe!

A visitor from United States posted Sun July 23, 2006:
Awesome shot. Someone needs to get a picture of Standiford Field the day of the Kentucky Derby. There are soo many planes they park them in the grass between the runways.

A visitor from Spain posted Wed July 19, 2006:
Being there at the perfect moment and the position of the camera

A visitor from Belgium posted Mon July 17, 2006:
Excellent view... the cpt of the SN avrojet must have been upset to see he couldn't park his plane under the roof as usual :)

A visitor from Germany posted Sat July 15, 2006:
Absolutely fantastic shot! To our Berlin friends, keep this airport open! What an amazing piece of history... glad to see it's potential used again. (can you get me a tour in the airport?)
- And as an American stationed near Kaiserslautern, what an exceptional job the Germans did with the FIFA World Cup this year. It was such a blast, and all went without a hitch. Props to Germany for such a great job!

A visitor from Germany posted Sat July 15, 2006:
Well done Frank! This is a very awesome pic. greetings LOKI

A visitor from Switzerland posted Fri July 14, 2006:
What a sight - brilliant. I hope that airport will never be closed. Keep on fighting for that!

A visitor from Germany posted Thu July 13, 2006:
Brilliant!
BTW: Some older people were reminded of the Berlin Airlift which took place 1948/49

A visitor from Egypt posted Wed July 12, 2006:
Excellent pic really.. surprisingly they are so alot and some of them parked on the grass!! wow :)

A visitor from Portugal posted Wed July 12, 2006:
Awesome picture Frank .

A visitor from Germany posted Wed July 12, 2006:
Frank you did a great job with this unbelievable picture! The FIFA World Cup was even for me a wonderful event that I will never forget. And this picture represents what was going on, on the airfields in Berlin! Frank you may be lucky that you work in THF in a high buildung. A sencond time: Great picture! Five stars!

A visitor from Sweden posted Wed July 12, 2006:
This a very brilliant photo maybe this photo Looks like the fans of the World cup 2006

A visitor from Germany posted Wed July 12, 2006:
For ages politicians are talking about closure of Tempelhof airfield, no idea what amount of traffic this airfield could handle and number of excellent customers could be attracted to the city.

A visitor from Serbia And Montenegro posted Wed July 12, 2006:
Awesome picture. The curviture of the apron makes it even more beautiful. But to tell you the truth those planes look kind of funny because they are quite small. They look like an army gettin' ready to go to combat. Anyway, fantastic shot!

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Wed July 12, 2006:
Nice Citation 10 I spot there! :)

A visitor from United States posted Wed July 12, 2006:
What an uncredible shot !!!

There have probably only more planes around at Tempelhof during the air lift.

A visitor from Brazil posted Tue July 11, 2006:
...and more 2 choppers and 6 cars! ;->

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Tue July 11, 2006:
The biggest sport event of the world produces one of the most impressive picture about airplanes I`ve ever seen.
Good job.

A visitor from Germany posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Very great picture!
I really love Tempelhof Airport, especially after my last flight DTM-THF with DO-228.

A visitor from Italy posted Tue July 11, 2006:
What a mess, I wouldn't have worked there that day!one of the airliner is the eurofly A320-100...the official plane of Italian Team! that plane landed at Pratica di Mare carrying the Cup the day after, where ten blu MB339CD, better known as Freccie Tricolare, gave to our "eroes" one of the best welcome ever! by the way, great great shot frank!

A visitor from Germany posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Nice shot of a truely historic airport, and what a foto to commemorate the World Cup. I don't know about the number of planes being at the airport at the same time, but a large number of aircraft have been involved in the Berlin Airlift after WWII (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berlin_Blockade for more info on that issue), lots of them bound for Tempelhof.

A visitor from Italy posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Great shot! I give you four stars. The reason it's in the fact that we, yes, we are the champions of the world for the fourth time!!! From now on we'll four little stars on the t-shirt! "We are the champions, my friend..." :))))

A visitor from United States posted Tue July 11, 2006:
A dream come true for our Belin spotters!

A visitor from Australia posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Great shot mate. just wondering how many of these belong to the players...

A visitor from Germany posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Good shot! Was there too that day. Must have been early that day because later some empty spots on the apron where filled with aircraft as well...

A visitor from Germany posted Tue July 11, 2006:
I love THF even more than any ohter airport in Berlin. ;-)

A visitor from Netherlands posted Tue July 11, 2006:
I like that little white one... :-)

A visitor from United States posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Pretty impressive but NOTHING compared to Louisville (Kentucky, USA) during the Kentucky Derby. Almost 3 - 4 times as many as this!!

A visitor from Greece posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Awesome photo! Can somebody confirm that Tempelhof is the second biggest building after the pentagon on earth?

A visitor from Germany posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Wow, looks like a new Berlin airlift to me. Nice shot... Denis

A visitor from Czech Republic posted Tue July 11, 2006:
I think the Eurofly A319(?) on the picture was used by Italian team to leave Berlin after final. Wasn't it?

A visitor from Germany posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Great airport, great picture, five stars! Almost unbelievable how many movements German airports had during the championchips, this was a great month for all the spotters :-)

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Cool photo, how on earth did you get this angle? well done 5 stars

A visitor from Germany posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Great picture... I assume I heard every single bird starting (I´d say 20+ planes/ hour)in the night from 9th to 10th -> I will never understand why laws are not applicable for VIPs and politicians...

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Tue July 11, 2006:
The last time there was so many aircraft there was 1942...

A visitor from Germany posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Very nice picture of this old aiport. Mr. Wowi, keep THF alive!!!

A visitor from United States posted Tue July 11, 2006:
I thought that this pic was fake when I first saw it. I have never seen soo many jets in one area like this before.

A visitor from Finland posted Tue July 11, 2006:
The dark bizjet first in the picture is from Finland (OH). I think this plane brought Finland's head(s) of state to Berlin.

Great capture. The whole world was there.

A visitor from Germany posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Awesome shot Frank! I saw this spectacular scene from the highway too, it was amazing! The aircrafts were parked everywhere around the airfield. Imagine THF would have been closed as it was planned for 2004 already...

A visitor from United States posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Very nice picture, but I just don't get what the big deal is about soccer.

A visitor from United States posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Well composed

A visitor from United Arab Emirates posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Never seen that many bizjets on one ramp!

A visitor from Argentina posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Just a beautiful view! A really nice photo! A parade of private Jets!

A visitor from India posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Seems like Berlin stadium with spectators jamm packed.Excellent!!Matches with the football fever.

A visitor from United States posted Tue July 11, 2006:
It's funny how they have to recips sitting in the grass! lol This is definitely one of the best shots ever on airliner.net! great job!

A visitor from United States posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Fantastic photo! I had never seen an airport apron look like car a parking lot (congrats to Germany for their wonderful organization of this Cup)

A visitor from Hong Kong posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Just one word - Awesome!

A visitor from United States posted Tue July 11, 2006:
That's some serious dollars! Outstanding!

A visitor from Germany posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Even in Leipzig/Halle EDDP 150km south of Berlin parked ca. 60 bizjets that day- three major airports in Berlin were not enough ;-)

A visitor from Mexico posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Wow

A visitor from United States posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Great Job! Thanks!!!

A visitor from Iceland posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Extremely nice overview.

I counted 100 aircraft on the pic.!

A visitor from United States posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Great

A visitor from Germany posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Holy fishskin, have there ever been more aircraft at once to Tempelhof ?

A visitor from Austria posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Awesome!

A visitor from United States posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Good job capturing how the popularity of soccer affects things completly unrelated to soccer. BTW, there was much celebration here in the USA after Italy won.

A visitor from Sweden posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Darling, where did you say we parkt again?

A visitor from Bahamas posted Tue July 11, 2006:
You were either very lucky or very patient to catch this many birds at THF! Great shot!

A visitor from Denmark posted Tue July 11, 2006:
I want to be rich too you know...

A visitor from Mexico posted Tue July 11, 2006:
This is an historical airport and looks so great! And yes, Italy defeated France, they were 1-1 and at the end the score was 5-3, Trezeguet missed one penalty shot.

A visitor from Germany posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Great pic of a great airport. I hope it will never get closed.

A visitor from Germany posted Tue July 11, 2006:
Well done Frank!

A visitor from United States posted Mon July 10, 2006:
What an amazing picture Frank. Thanks for sharing, it must have been 4 weeks of paradise at many German fields.

A visitor from Germany posted Mon July 10, 2006:
Simply amazing!!!

A visitor from Germany posted Mon July 10, 2006:
Wow, a lot of planes!

A visitor from Sweden posted Mon July 10, 2006:
The best pleading to show that the wonderful airport Tempelhof must be kept alive and in service!

A visitor from United States posted Mon July 10, 2006:
Wow! All those biz jets in one place! Sweet!
