Question what new GJ airport stuff would you like to see

i recently emailed gemini jets and asked about new airport buildings, mats etc and they said something about a new mat and terminal but this was not really that helpfull, personally i would like to see a new mat to finish of the runway with a small cargo centre, a sattilite terminal and some ramp space, with spaces for fire stations etc.

Re: what new GJ airport stuff would you like to see

I'd like to see GJs making Large GSE sets, containing mord than just 14 pieces. If they made something like there older set: GJAPS001 with 19 pieces and the Airbridge I would be happier. I would also like them to include air-stairs for the 737NG sized planes, so when the aircraft is parked at the stand, passengers won't have to walk onto the top of the fuselage.

I'd like to see them to develop their Boeing 747's by putting rolling wheels and gear that angles (If you know what I mean) on all of their future 747's, aswell as a development on their other future aircraft. I know Phoenix Models do it on their 747's but GJ's would be less expensive for us buyers.

Well i think they should bring out more GSE sets like rapleylikeba but in airline liverys as you would see at a real airport.

i think they should make shrinkdowns of their current airport stuff! i mean they should offer their fantastic jetways in 1/500 scale, too and go head-to-head with herpa.

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

why would gemini jets want to make 1/500 they dont make 1/500 aircraft, however i think gemini should follow herpas example and bring out tings like fire stations and fuel dumps etc

Re: what new GJ airport stuff would you like to see

I would like to see a mat made out of better materials so it has a better value and also more GSE really like the stairs and extra buildings and maybe a cheaper building to as the current one is a bit of my price range.

This would be great--a free-standing backdrop that could stand behind the diorama, without having to attach to the wall (or the diorama), with different themes available--mountain, cityview, wide open sky, ocean. Think of the photo ops!

I would like some trees to give it personality, or some plants. But we do need an ATC tower

Re: what new GJ airport stuff would you like to see

a backdrop would be good, a reversable one maybe so you could have more choice, things that need to be addressed is how do people get to the airport, i mean the terminal is surrounded by aircraft and the train doesnt go anywhere, i have to tell people theres a underground car park

Re: what new GJ airport stuff would you like to see

My wish for a new GSE set:
Everything included in the 14 piece set x 4 plus smaller air-stairs included aswell.

true. but if you read my my last statement, "we seriously need competition in 1/500.." i was speaking from a business point of view. their products are far superior than herpa's, but only too large in scale. herpa's on the other hand also works for both scales.

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