We are very much looking for honorary volunteers who donate their time and support some of our young people in learning German.
It is great how much the young people help each other! For their further development and a real opportunity in our society they need urgent language support!
Please forward our call to everyone you know! We welcome any help!

The Fliegerwerkstatt Team
On the 3rd of December 2016, we are hosting an indoor soccer tournament in the Fliegerwerkstatt for the second time. Ulrike Braiger is looking forward to registrations until November 19th!
The group of young people, who come to the Fliegerwerkstatt in their spare time, is getting bigger and bigger.
Ferhad, Shamel and Lasana can work on their projects during the holidays as well as after school.
Masuud, who had long been accommodated in the hangars at Tempelhof, has brought along his friends from the emergency accomodation to cook together a Somali dish.
With coffee and homemade cakes, our teenagers welcomed the guests to the ‘Open Day’. After a joint preparation everyone was delighted by the great interest, stimulating discussions and active participants in our workshop rally.
After stencils were made of wood, the new windows for the cockpit could be replicated of polycarbonate plates. Julian and Lasana drill the last mounting holes in the cockpit.
We were supported by our volunteer, Günter Hujer, who reconstructs the Eyebrow window from forex panels with Omar.
Malek and Mohammed have discovered their talents to build a new vehicle from a collection of old bicycle parts.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR:
Old bicycles or accessories!
Please submit or call for pick up:

We wish all happy holidays and good rest!
The original Boeing 737 cockpit in itself is fascinating and has given us the opportunity to explain many functions when removing components. With the imminent launch of our simulator construction, the cockpit gets a new purpose. Therefore, the participants of the Fliegerwerkstatt start preparing the skin accordingly:
To ensure that no injuries occur at the cut edges, these are carefully deflashed.
Since the cockpit with its blue color would reflect too much light to the projection screen, it must be matt coated black.
Therefore, it is first sanded and then taped to protect.
Three coats were necessary to deeply color the cockpit black. Each group of our three partner schools was responsible for a painting:
The first task took over Ikeade, Shamel, Fidel, Omar and Ferhat.
We continued with Ahmet, Tobias, Fadl, Tayourou and Saim.
Hristo, Muhammed, Anil and Bilal were very proud for their final painting!
