The crisis started when in 1948 the Soviet Union tried to effectively get the whole of Berlin under its control. Stalin hoped to achieve this by closing to the Western powers all roads and waterways leading to Berlin, making Berling totally dependent for its food and all its other necessities from the Soviets.
The Western powers circumvented the Soviet blockade by starting an airlift to Berlin, providing in well over 200,000 flights its citizens with food and supplies.
