Recordist's notes

(binaural) landing at the Tegel airport. hum of the engines, the mics could't handle the pressure of the actual landing so there is some distortion. Crew welcoming the passengers to Berlin (this is always strange - they just arrived as well :). Plane circling on the runway, people unbuckling their belts, taking out hand luggage.
