one thing i dont know that there is a Airport called Hegel in berlin. we call it Tegel ;P
Well..., just weeks prior to WWIII the airport was renamed in honour of the great German philosopher Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel.

Originally Immanuel Kant had been suggested, but a popular British comedy group had constructed a song where the ryhme "Immanuel Kant was a real p*ssant" was included, and there was some speculation as to this being the reason why Hegel was chosen in the end. Later events (WWIII) greatly overshadowed the various twists surrunding the renaming of the airport.



No, seriously...., it's a typo.
