Thom's 1:500 Amsterdam Schiphol Airport
Hey members!
After I had Ellutjo Airport for a while, I thought: Why not something new? After saving up some money, I could finally purchase a No-Point Diorama replica of Amsterdam Schiphol Airport's Pier E F G and H in 1:500 scale. So I recieved the set right before my holiday, unable to build anything except for Pier H. I do however, have some shots of the Groundfoil and the Background included.
The models on display are: G Pier: Sky B737-900, F Pier: KLM 777-300ER and 777-200ER, E Pier: KLM MD-11, American B767 and Air Berlin A330-200, On the taxiway: Emirates A380, KLM B747-400 BFL.
I hope to update this thread on the 18th of August, when I return.
Best Regards,
Thom

Thank you my friend! I'm pleased that you like the ground foil and background just as much as I do!

There's a whole lot of work to do, including: Building all 4 Piers, Building Terminal 3, The groundfoil needs to be applied to wood, All jetbridges (Most of them over-the-wing).. And then buy and customize GSE! And the birds serving the real Schiphol!

Thanks! The dimensions are 2.4 Meters by 1.2 Meters, in Centimeters that's 240 Cm by 120 Cm. Indeed it'd be great for the Royal Blues to shine here! I'm planning on a big fleet of not only KLM, but also Delta Air Lines models.. 5 A330-300's are here at the same moment..  Wish me luck!

Re: Thom's 1:500 Amsterdam Schiphol Airport
No-point really have done amazing work on their airports. This is just a spectacular re-model of Amsterdam. It's great to see someone taking photo's who has actually bought this product as a customer. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Re: Thom's 1:500 Amsterdam Schiphol Airport
Looking great Thom! Can't wait to see the end result!
Maybe the KLM service between MD international and Ellutjo International can move to this new airport and maybe an upgrade?
