@all: nice airports in here, guys!

Time to show one new of mine, Don Meang Int. Airport:

The airport itself is quite small and only has got a short runway (max B767). The terminal is very small with some check in counters and one baggage claim. The gates themselves are reachable by foot or by bus. The airport has got a total of 4 gates (all with jetways). So here is the control tower:

A B757 of a small charter airline using gate1. You see that the gates have small buildings reachable by bus or foot:

This small building is the terminal. By getting to small it can be expanded until reaching the gates:

Side view:

Some hangars:

Finally a close-up of the landside of the terminal:

One of the two taxiways to the single runway:

Finally one descending plane. It's Air NewZealand B767, flying to the runway over water:

Feliwi: Wow!!!  That must be one of the most creative airports I have ever seen!  Jetways connected to small buildings you can reach by bus or foot--I like that idea!

@good airports everybody

Time for another edition of airports you couldn't possibly get lost in ;-)

IslandsEnd-5Jul041219604404.png

Here we have Island's End airport, built ind 1941 for the US Navy but a civilian facility since 1961.

IslandsEnd-21Jun041219604356.png

This is the General Aviation Terminal, originally the Base Operations Building. It was turned into the airport's first terminal building in 1961 and reverted to it's current role in 1980.

IslandsEnd-16Jun041219604334.png

That year the present terminal opened, able to handle 100.000 passengers per year. It currently hosts flights to Vancouver, Victoria, as well as Seattle, WA. As the building is slowly approaching its capacity limit, plans are in the drawer to build a new terminal, able to handle up to 500.000 passengers.

art128, not disappointing at all!  I especially like the diagonal runway and different pavement use for it!

R-One: Nice airport. Could you tell me, where I can find the buildings on your apron left of the Northwest 747? they look quite good and would be great for terminal usage also!

This may sound like a stupid question but do the RIMP airport Pieces act as an airport for the city or is it just for good looks?? I want to build a custon airport but i want it to be functional and not just something that looks pretty!

it's just for looks...you can use the props and textures to redo the in-game airports in lot editor...it's what i've done so i have realistic airports...i'm still working on them, but i'll probably stop since the Aircraft Consortium over at SC4Devotion is doing a project like that with all new pieces that should release in just under 2 months...

Very nice ryannayr140. The planes are too close to the taxiway and the highway network isn't very realistic, but it still looks nice. Also, you need to resize your pictures to 800x600 4.gif

If u look at each highway it is going N/S or E/W if there is a more realistic way to combine 2 highways and an airport highway then knock urself out
