"It was schweinekalt and we were nearly blown away," recalled Airline Executive Director Achim Hunold smirk at the topping out of the hangar.
On Tuesday, the 59-year-old reason to smile: Just in time to 30 had Anniversary of the airline and only 16 months after construction work was Hunold Airport Director Christoph Blume symbolic key for the new hall.
The 65-Millionenbau - it's a hangar at the superlatives, equipped with modern technology: On the roof of the hall - a nearly 1,300-square-foot photovoltaic system for independent power supply.
Because they should be fed within the next 20 years also 2.7 million kilowatt-hours in the public grid. Two Kranbahnanlagen in the hall provide for the rapid transport of instinct and tail units.

With the fragmentation resulting delays, holding patterns and high costs. Through a single air traffic control, we could save, depending on the amount of crude oil prices, costs between 30 and 120 million euros. "
