Well done. Tegel it is. Construction commenced 5th August 1948 - Operations commenced 5th November 1948. I suspect this image is of the formal opening which I believe took place in December 1948 . Concrete was not available so bricks and rubble from the ruins of Berlin was compacted and topped with tarmac for the runway ,taxiways and aprons.
