Trivia

Gerhard Maier received increased media attention through a breakdown in ZIB magazine on April 1, 2014. He announced an article on the topic of Lufthansa pilots' strike, which was not yet completed at the time. So he filled the one-and-a-half minute waiting time with various aviation-related phrases and thus developed a humorous dimension: "The story is still in flight, maybe it's not the best flying weather" or "the flight should start now" .
