This was the warning sign painted
on Rhein-Main's old flight line in front of the the tower. Let
me take you back in time on a tour inside the tower before this
historic landmark was torn down. The tower was the former symbol
of freedom for so many who made flight to safety from captivity
and war during the past six decades. |
| I'm not sure but this could have been the old CSC
until they moved out of the tower. Our Security folks would recognize
it! |

The abandoned flight line |
| Now ALL of Rhein-Main's buildings have been torn
down. |

Looking southeast over the former
Fire Department. |
| Looking due south: The old
brick Zeppelin-era building which used to be the oldest building
around the airport. I think it used to be our designated Bldg. 43
("Special Ops. Squadron")… also flattened of course. |

Eerie! |
| Looking southwest you can see the former 21st Replacement
Battalion. Building in the middle of the picture and the southern
tip of Bldg. 400, the MAC - or later AMC Terminal. I still remember
it's Grand Opening circa 1987/88. |
