Ok, I have numerous aircraft prop packs I've downloaded.  My question, how can I place a specific aircraft in a specific spot?  I want to create passenger terminals and seperate cargo terminals, but no where in any of my menus does it show the ability to plop an aircraft.

    So is there a way to put specific aircraft types or airlines down?  My goal is to create a realistic style airport with different terminals for different airlines and also a cargo facility for ups/fedex/dhl ect.  How can I find out what I need for the props that I've downloaded for work correctly?  I have almost all of the aircraft prop types I've seen (no airport has only one type of aircraft).

    Ideally this is what I want..

    Cargo Hubs:

    A cargo warehouse for fedex

    A cargo warehouse for ups (seperate from other cargo carriers)

    A cargo warehouse for dhl

    A cargo warehouse for other misc cargo carriers

    Passenger Hubs:

    Main terminal with various airlines (but with each airline having a section to themselves).

    Satellite terminals for internation flight for specific airlines (ie 1 satellite for Northwest, 1 for American, ect)

    In between the different gates I'd like to place dollies, cargo tugs, baggage carts and other misc ground support equipment.

    I have all of the ground pieces I need to build the runways, taxiways ect.  I have most of the files already from the links you provided.

    You lack one final pack to do so. You will be able to build custom terminals with ACB-VLT Terminals and Jets Series (2 parts) available in the third link Xyloxadoria provided and you will find some cargo terminals with warehouses in the second link, inside the same pack where cargo aircrafts are.

    Ok, here is my biggest issue.  I downloaded all the files from the links provided.  I am in the process of building a terminal, but I still dont see anything beyond 707, private jets and smaller. I do have some hangars that show some military fighter aircraft.  I need something to be able to put down a 747, MD11 or something like that.   I have the props for those types. 

    I need ....

    Fedex flies MD11, DC-10, A300, A310

    UPS flies 757 (or 767 I forget which)

    DHL, I know they fly older DC-8, but I'd settle for something a little more modern.

    Now for the terminals, how can I plop down a specific airline?  I do need to just keep plopping until I get what I want?  Is there a trick?  How does one get a specific airline when they need it?
