question about 1:200 airport
Hey guys,
Quick question here; say that I want to construct a 1:200 airport terminal. Since I already have the GJ 1:400 airport terminal, should I just take the dimensions of the GJ terminal and multiply them by 2 to be able to build an appropriate sized 1:200 terminal?

Re: question about 1:200 airport
Air Force One Fan,
I'm not doing the GJ terminal itself, I just want to use the dimensions as a starting point to make the terminal scale with my 1:200 planes. If the 1:400 terminal is correctly scale with the 1:400 planes, then I figure that if I multiply the dimensions of the terminal by 2, it would give me the correct height and width etc.

Re: question about 1:200 airport
I'd say you're pretty well off to double the dimensions seeing as how the 1:200 scale is twice as big as 1:400 scale. It should work out fairly well...at least as a starting point as you said

Re: question about 1:200 airport
If you're doing a fantasy terminal of your own design look at some airport pics and guess the size of the building by the number of airliner wingspans.

Re: question about 1:200 airport
Mathematically, if you double every dimension of 1/400 i.e. length, width, depth,.. then it will become 1/200.
