<p class="blog-para">After the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 and German reunification in 1990, Berlin once again became the German federal capital. Leaders made plans to recognise the city's increased importance by constructing a large commercial airport. The existing airports&Ocirc;&Ccedil;&ouml;Tegel Airport, Sch├&Acirc;nefeld Airport, and Tempelhof Airport&Ocirc;&Ccedil;&ouml;were ageing and becoming increasingly congested due to rising passenger numbers. To ensure the economic viability of the project, they pursued the single airport concept: the new airport would become the sole commercial airport for Berlin and Brandenburg. They planned to close Tegel, Sch├&Acirc;nefeld, and Tempelhof upon opening the new airport, then ban commercial aviation from any other airport in Brandenburg.</p>

<h2 class="blog-hed2 pb-lg-4 pb-3 pt-5">Overview Berlin Brandenburg Airport</h2>
<p class="blog-para">Current and planned layout of the airport, November 2020 Berlin-Brandenburg Airport has two parallel runways. With a spacing of 1,900 metres (6,200 ft), this allows independent flight operations without interference from wake turbulence.</p>
<p class="blog-para">The northern runway of BER is the southern runway of the old Sch├&Acirc;nefeld Airport and has been in use since the 1960s. To adapt it for the new airport, it has been renovated and lengthened from 3,000 to 3,600 metres (9,800 to 12,000 ft). The newly built southern runway has a length of 4,000 metres (13,000 feet) and was officially commissioned on May 31, 2012. Blackouts of the runway beacon on the southern runway led to investigations concerning air traffic safety.</p>
