At Kassel Airport (KSF) in northern Hesse, which usually sees only modest volumes of passenger traffic and does not have any major ambitions in the air freight business, a German Armed Forces A400M is likely to generate unusual activity next Saturday, 29 January 2022, when adults and children from the age of five can get vaccinated against Covid-19 exclusively in the aircraft.
The initiators - Kassel Airport, the Johanniter Regionalverband Kurhessen, the air transport squadron 62 from Wunstorf, members of the regional liaison commands of the German Armed Forces, medical staff officers of the civil-military cooperation, the Kassel Post Pharmacy and the Städtische Werke - want to administer more than 500 vaccinations on that day. Outside of the vaccination, the aircraft can only be viewed from the airport fence. (ah)
