Berlin Blockade & Airlift (1948-Berlin Blockade & Airlift (1948-49)49)

• The blockade lasted 318 days (11 months). • In the winter of 1948–49 Berliners lived on dried

potatoes, powdered eggs and cans of meat.  They had four hours of electricity a day.

• The airlift was codenamed 'operation Vittles'; the first flight was on 26 June 1948.

• The Soviet authorities offered to provide West Berlin with essential supplies - this offer was rejected.

• 275,000 flights carried in 1½ million tons of supplies.  A plane landed every 3 mins.

• On 16 April 1949, 1400 flights brought in 13,000 tons of supplies in one day – Berlin only needed 6,000 tons a day to survive.

• Some pilots dropped chocolate and sweets.• The airlift continued until 30 September 1949, in

order to build up a reserve of supplies.• The USA stationed B-29 bombers (which could carry

an atomic bomb) in Britain. • The American airmen were regarded as heroes
