BERLIN AIRLIFT 1948 IN COLOR AMERICAN AIRLINES 40284
Presented by American Airlines and written by Stanley Washburn, Jr. and shot by Agnew Fisher, AIRLIFT TO BERLIN presents the story of the Berlin Airlift of 1948. It was made before the resolution of the Berlin Blockade, and demonstrated the resolve of those involved in the Lift to see it succeed. Just prior to the Berlin Blockade, American Airlines had begun passenger service to Berlin, and so the airline was intimately involved in the lift and the evacuation of some civilians from the city. The film shows the movement of supplies from Rhein Mein into the besieged city by Douglas C-54 Skymasters. The British and Allies maintained their own corridor as part of the lift. Tempelhof Airport is seen at the 3:40 mark.
The film also shows unique vistas of the ruined city of Berlin, which at this time was still recovering from the devastation of the war, including the shell of the Reichstag at the 5:50 mark and the Brandenburg Gate at the 6:00 mark.
