I want to be but not mechanics, but a student pilot, should have moaned as an engine model in the classroom was rolled. But because Lufthansa is hard: who wants to fly, must understand the technology that brings the giant silver birds in the air.
The Simulator first feel for flying. Here in Bremen are rather simple models, nor is not about subtleties. What instrument shows what, how you can learn, where you are?

Now only a few are missing almost 700 kilometers - drive ships through Europe by the North Sea to the Black Sea in a few years. Already, the channel revived the economy in the depressed means-Bayern.
The channel, the last of which will be built here in the Altmühltal is a thousand years. Even Charlemagne dreamed of the connection, which will be finally completed at the beginning of the 1990s.
The Unweltschutz is now all interference with nature at the top. Monuments in this ancient cultural landscape earn the same respect. But also the partly new landscape, from the channel dominates, has its beauties.

Also in the apartments, the greatest son of the city of Augsburg by his image remains present. He wanted at the time. The people live cheap here: an apartment with 3 rooms and kitchen costing just under 2 marks throughout the year.
The Fugger Foundation is financed mainly from their large landholdings. But in the hillsides, the main source of funds, there are problems: damage to trees by pollutants in the air.
In contrast to previously only older people, whose own Geld to life is not enough live today in the Fuggerei. Even if they are poor, they should remain free people in the protection of the Fuggerei. And to protect their peace of mind, the doors - close every evening for 400 years.

The Cathedral is seen from here almost on the edge of the two thousand year-old city of Cologne.
