Warnings:[]

Banlines of up to 110 metres left and right of entry parcel!

Military Planes are allowed any time, as long as not painted with unconstitutional symbols forbidden by German Law, especially swastika and military emblems of units who committed genocide. SLWB Security will react with all given abilities.

Facilities:[]

VASI at touchdown point.

Landmaster™ Rating System installed:

1 board with an "aging" of 14 days - keeps up the "kick" of competing

Fuel facilities: DSA, Dani, TBM, Terra, Shergood, NTBI

GTFO! Hub for Road and Air established.

Medium Planes
Large Helicopters
Trucks

Appropriate planes are e.g.

Dani D-300, D-100, D-120, D-121, D-207
DSA Starship, King Air, Electra
McKeenan Bae 146, Boeing 727
Java Designs Avanti, Duke
all smaller airplanes like STOL, Piper, fighter planes

Still, of course a D-318 oder D-737 may touch down here (due to phantom wings), but the impression is not realistic! In general, this airfield still is made for "medium planes". If you look at the list by GTFO! (and filter "plane" and "large") you get 7 entries. And I am afraid we can not serve these types.

Additional info and Trivia:[]

Willy Brandt was the fourth chancellor of The Federal Republic of Germany, between 1969 and 1974. He was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1971 for his efforts to strengthen cooperation in western Europe through the EEC and to achieve reconciliation between West Germany and the countries of Eastern Europe. He was the first Social Democrat chancellor since 1930. The term "Kniefall von Warschau", also referred to as "Warschauer Kniefall", (both German for "Warsaw genuflection") refers to a gesture of humility and penance by West German Chancellor Willy Brandt towards the victims of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising in December 1970.

Willy Brandt Airport is Homebase to THUNDERFLIGHT Air Carrier

Trusted aviators can apply for a membership in the land group "Belargio Inc.". This allows to park your airplane longer than the return time of 30 minutes. Please contact Lorelai Lefevre.

Since 2019 Jeogeot is connected to Sansara via the new continent Bellisseria. Long distance flights are possible!

After the rededication of Archerfield (2020/01) into a mainly military airfield "Willy Brandt Airport" is the southernmost Civil Airport of importance in whole Second Life. Nevertheless at southern Jeogeot Gulf several smaller military airstrips exist.

LukeFlywalker Fittinger portrayed SLWB in the first episode of "Airport to Airport", to be watched on the Youtube channel "SLAviationNetwork": Link to Youtube. At this time it was still named "Jeogeot Gulf Community Airstrip".
