Kita Goethe's Children's World: Preschool children end up in the cockpit!

Gelnhausen, Deutschland - On June 17, 2025, the preschool children of the "Goethe's Children's World" daycare center in Hailer made an unforgettable trip to the Aero-Club Gelnhausen. On foot, the little adventurers made their way to the airfield, where they were already expected to be full of anticipation.

insight into the world of flying

A successful trip to the airfield naturally also includes a visit to the tower, from where the children could enjoy a magnificent view of the entire site. The journey with the "yellow taxi" over the airfield site caused a lot of laughs, especially when the little passengers rocked over the bumps. The excursion lasted around three hours until the parents finally stated.

A big thank you goes to the Aero Club, especially Klaus-Dieter Wendt, who took the organization of the excursion in hand. The children took a large number of new impressions and memories - the enthusiasm for the world of flying was visibly noticeable.

community and team spirit

The gliding is much more than just flying itself; It is a real team sport. Anyone who is involved in flight operations, from the pilot to the helper, plays an important role in getting a glider in the air. This community makes flying something special. Every contribution counts, and the little moments of collaboration are priceless. The feeling of attachment through the love of flying combines all those involved in the Aero club, as on the club side of the Aero-Club Gelnhausen.

The dream of flying is as old as humanity itself. Historical personalities like Leonardo da Vinci, Otto Lilienthal and the Wright brothers did pioneering work to realize people's longing. Otto Lilienthal, who is considered one of the first flight pioneers, developed his own flight machine around 120 years ago. In the past centuries, the aviation has developed enormously: from hanging director to Airbus A380, which offers space for over 850 passengers and is broader as a football field, as in a [lexicon over fly] (https://www.br.de/kinder/flimzen-vom-haenge -her-zum-superjumbo-flifle-kinder-lexikon-100.html) is.

With all these exciting information and impressions in their luggage, the children from Hailer not only learned about planes that day, but also learned the importance of cooperation and teamwork in flight sports - and maybe also laid the first cornerstone for a future passion for flying.
