Arrowhead International Airport

You could say Arrowhead International Airport (AHT) is a tourist attraction itself, if not for any other reason than the fact that it has almost as many visitors as any other attraction in the city. But that's because the airport is how most tourists get to Arrowhead. Yet there's no denying that the airport is a stunning welcome into the city. Situated by its lonesome on top of a large mesa on the city's southwest edge, AHT as it is today was constructed in the early '90s and replaced the smaller, limited-capacity airport that had been around since the mid-'50s. The airport is unique in that it is one of the few international airports in America to preserve its surrounding nature. Another unique characteristic is the airport's underground parking and terminal entrances. Arrowhead International Airport is located near the neighborhood South Head, and can be reached via Buffalo Bill Bridge south to Shoshone Drive, then west past Six Flags Boulder Canyon.

*Please ignore the strange lighting on some of the pictures. I was trying to take them when it was dusk or dawn in the game, but the game's lighting kept changing so quickly I couldn't get all four screenshots in each picture before the lighting would change!

You win hands down, the display you've put out over the previous pages and now this. Truly amazing work spurs, you have a special gift. Carlsberg don't do airports, but if they did it would probably be this one! Hail to the cheif

 I love it, the scenery, the terminals, the story, very good work. The only negative, would an airport with only six stands need two runways? Preserve the scenery more and get rid of one! 
Keep up the excellant CJ

Beautiful. I think there could be more terminals for domestic and international. Runway could be longer. Overall 9/10 just too beautiful

Thanks guys!!

@dghh70 - yeah haha...a runway should prob be at least 8000' to handle 747s...mine is 3379' long LOL.....with Arrowhead my goal has been aesthetic realism over mathematical realism....but w/ my next CJ I'm planning on doing BOTH!!
