i was making a business case. surely, there is a way of hitting two birds with one stone.

The Herpa Scenix GSE is great I really love it. If herpa can expand on this with buses and stairs and fuel trucks I'd be really happy!

I'd like to see a landside/airside terminal. The existing terminal is very well done and is reminiscent of DIA but I would like to see another terminal that allows people to drop off passengers somewhere.

I agree, a new terminal thats a bit smaller than the current and then a sattilite terminal but also some ramp space for smaller planes like dash8s and crjs

I emailed Gemini sometime back on these subjects. Originally they had great plans for their airport set. Seems like they stalled out somewhere along the line.
These would be nice: Making a terminal building (what they currently have is more like a midfield concourse), a smaller concourse for commuter craft, the ATC (with options), more GSE with airline logos, other buildings like cargo, fire station, more vehicles for air and land side, parking deck, more competion to the mat they already have, hangers and other scenic accessories.

couldnt agree with you more

Dudishdanny · 09-04-2008, 02:03 PM

I think that there should be a ATC Tower, Vehicles with specific livery on them e.g. Virgin Atlantic Coach and also I have to agree with RapleylikeBA that some of the airbridges are too tall for my A320's and 737's. I mainly want a ATC tower though. =]

He told me due to the Dw terminal the cargo area plans are ...... ?

theres a post on about the new dw stuff, dosent look very good, i prefer to have a full airport with runways not just a place to park, getting planes with them is a good idea

Peak Airways · 09-04-2008, 06:41 PM

Supposedly, you don't have to keep the terminal attached to the ground piece that comes with it on the DW terminal pieces. They were meant to be mixed and matched sort of like the herpa's. Don't know if that has changed.

we seriously need comptetition in 1/500 scale!!!

very well said, we definitly need more competition in 1:500 scale, since starjets stoped production herpa really takes advantage of its monopoly ...for a while I hoped IF500 would bring some fresh air to 1:500 scale they only offer a small selection of some older liveries... we definitly need real competition and I really wonder why GEMINI or DRAGONWINGS wouldn't offer some products in 1:500 scale..........

I'll echo the desire to see a nice terminal made with a landside portion to it. Something with the same wonderful detail the the current terminal has, but with a road and a building for baggage claim and check in desks. I imagine that GJ could produce some fancy terminal sections that would make expanding this "smaller" airport easy and fun as well. That and a ATC tower are what I'm looking for.

captain adam w · 09-05-2008, 06:06 AM

i would like to see things to go out side a landside terminal if they made one, like a multi storey car park or coach park like herpa did
