a highly reputed address when it comes to restoring historic aircraft and the tale of their family business is also worth telling. this plane's first owner flew into right around the world after purchasing the piper twelve in one thousand nine hundred forty seven. today mechanic eric meyer is going to pilot the american aircraft under the watchful eye of his father el mar and his sister annie. that sound is music to the years of airplane and. it's a passion is definitely takes you back to the roots of flying to the simplicity of playing it and the lightness to. the meiers are all fascinated with flying. this moves on and what my son is doing is just great the whole family flies that's the nicest thing i could. go to any meyer is also training to be an aircraft mechanic she's one of the few women to pursue this profession.

is an adventure you can see the world from above it's peaceful up there you're a little bit closer to heaven. eric meyer has loved planes like this super cruiser since childhood. in oakland similar to mine but for my birthday my uncle would always give me a round trip flight as a present i was even allowed to steer that went on for four or five maybe six years and there was nothing better than. today uncle hakim is a professional pilot and meyer motors flight instructor together with his brother elmer he runs the family business which specializes in restoring historical airplanes. to brothers founded the business a decade ago but the myers were restoring and flying vintage aircraft long before that it all started with their father a farmer who owned vineyards. i think sacked in the fall he said we need

a plane to spray the grape vine it's showing and when the barn had to be reconstructed enlarged. to make room for the plane so the mother and my brother we all worked on it by that back in one thousand nine hundred five his father paid twelve hundred marks for his fees. will be minus follows while our father's problem was that he was also disabled because you only had one arm people said he was being stupid that a disabled man couldn't and shouldn't fly was impossible but he did and in one thousand nine hundred four he became the first disabled person in germany to get his pilot's license my brother and i went up with them regularly as children and that's how we caught the flying bug. the brothers even experienced a crash with their father the plane was totaled but that didn't dampen their passion for flying twenty five years ago the brothers bought an aircraft of their own today meyer motors employs more than twenty people in two thousand and eleven

they found this one nine hundred fifty hawker c. fury at an air show that propeller plane could go almost as fast as a fighter jet at the time. i saw him and i were in reno when the plane crashed into the pilot ran out of fuel just before hitting the runway out the plane was destroyed and i read my brother's thoughts and said we'll buy it and reconstruct it again bones i thought with. numerous rare our famous flying machines now stand in the hangar or the workshop many of them belong to clients like this p. fifty one mustang. and the mayor is currently working on a message built in one nine hundred thirty four. when you know that you're handling things that are around one hundred years old it's kind of all inspiring and when you achieve something after working on it for so long when a piece finally fits and you attach it to the fuselage it's pretty cool emphasis

it's obvious and. still no one in the family expected that any would wind up doing her professional training here. it was the last thing i wanted to do i always said dad i'm not going to work for you then i took a gap year and went abroad and noticed how much i missed helping out and getting my hands dirty. after thinking about a lot i decided to do it after all and i don't regret it. i do it all over again is this. her brother eric already knew as a child that he wanted to become an aircraft mechanic today he's one of and he's instructors. who are thought of if i must say that i was really apprehensive but as we know how to solve problems from being siblings i'd say we make a pretty good team you know. we have a lot of fun it's work i thought it would be a lot worse. sabina meyer has managed the office from the start she always brought

her children along to work. they had their little bicycles with them and their wading pool stood outside they helped clean the planes and even built their own from cardboard boxes they had a lot of fun. the meiers are a family who are still having fun and shearing that vintage aircraft stay in the air for years to come. and for a look at what else is happening on the ground here in europe here's our grab bag off the other headline. the vatican christmas tree has hit the road the twenty eight meter high spruce left of forest in northeastern poland with a priest's blessing over the weekend. a special transport is taking the tree on its two thousand kilometer journey to st peter's square where it's set to arrive on thursday it will be lit up and presented to pope francis in
