With this year being the 70th anniversary of the beginning of the Berlin Airlift, here is a reminder article by Paul Bertorelli and a couple articles from IFR magazine about 20 years ago…. interesting reading about the American sacrifices just after the end of the war and flying 70 years ago, especially IFR! How the world and politics has changed since then!!
Berlin Airlift: This is the year to remember
Berlin Airlift: Plus Fifty – IFR mag 1998
With Tempelhof a major park? It shows how much aviation is worth in Germany.
Is there any fly-in or any event involving GA for the anniversary ?
I know Tempelhof closed, my Dad went to the closing fly-in many years ago.
A few enthusiasts are planning a meeting of 40 historical aircraft at Schönhagen (EDAZ), an airfield far outside the city of Berlin 
They are still looking for sponsors for financing of the event. They can not count on financial support from the local government.
I have found an article, unfortunately only in German language – here

Nice article linked by the OP thank you but can I just mention that the Royal Air Force was there as well.
Including using Sunderlands onto the local lakes.
