Singapore Airlines Training Centre - A look behind the scenes 

Innerhalb von 90 Sekunden muss ein Flugzeug evakuiert sein. Um im Ernstfall richtig und schnell zu reagieren, trainieren die Fluglinien regelmäßig ihr Personal. Aber nicht nur die Evakuierung über Notrutsche einer Airbus A380 gehört zum Trainingsplan, auch das Make-up und der Service möchten perfektioniert sein. Im Singapore Airlines Training Center konnte ich einen Blick hinter die Kulissen werfen.

Washington D.C. - Sights in the rain

Before heading back home on Sunday afternoon, I really wanted to take the opportunity to see the sights of Washington D.C. and the National Air and Space Museum at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Centre. Unfortunately, the weather didn't play ball and it rained all day.

Family holiday on the sunny island of Usedom

Die Sonneninsel Usedom macht ihrem Namen alle Ehre. Wir fuhren im schlimmsten Regen Richtung Ostsee und kaum passierten wir die Brücke zur Insel, hatten wir strahlend blauen Himmel und die Sonne lächelte uns an. Perfekt! So soll es sein.
