Spent 4 years in Berlin, 84 - 88. Most interesting assignment of my career.

I just bought two of these as Radio Control aircraft

Pilatus P-6. Designed by the Swiss for landing on very short runways in the mountains. The US Army had two of them in Berlin flying out of Tempelhof. Interesting that the Army would fly an aircraft designed for short mountain takeoffs and landings in a flat city with wide open streets.
