A charter flight chartered by the Almeria Business Chamber, which was supposed to deliver some 200 people to Berlin for the Fruitlogistica expo, was grounded at Almeria airport after a puncture was spotted in one of the tires. Supposed to take off at 5,30 it was delayed unti 14:30 until a replacement tire turned up from Madrid. Martin Soler, delegate for agriculture who was aboard, eventually gave his midday press briefing at an office in Almeria airport instead of at Berlin.
It appears that Tomatoman had gone on ahead, otherwise he would no doubt have flown them to Germany.
