In 1962 the national school of gliding was set up by Hanna Reitsch, who was once Adolf Hitler's top personal pilot.

Reitsch became Adolf Hitler's favourite pilot and was one of only two women awarded the Iron Cross during World War II.

With her long experience at low-altitude flying over Berlin and having already surveyed the road as an escape route with Hitler's personal pilot Hans Baur, Reitsch landed on an improvised airstrip in the Tiergarten near the Brandenburg Gate ( von Greim was wounded in the leg when Red Army soldiers fired at the light aircraft during its approach ).

Hitler had Hermann Fegelein ( Himmler's SS representative at Hitler's HQ in Berlin ) shot, and ordered von Greim ( with Reitsch ) to fly to Dönitz's headquarters at Ploen and arrest Himmler.
