Do you know if the real tower has a fence? I thought I saw one on it, but I might be wrong.

I just sent you an email (regarding payment)

Congratulations and Mingjim, you are a lucky guy! That is the best handmade no, the best terminal I have ever seen! Not handmade/homemade, I would pay the same price for that as the GJ Terminal.

This is going to be 1/400 scale. Unfortunately, I have not been able to work on the project (too busy with work). Hopefully I can work on it a bit more in the upcoming weeks.

Here is a photo I took today of the project. I finished drilling the holes (for fiberoptics) for both runways, approach lights, 1/3 of taxiways. Each runway will use approx 400-450 fiberoptic fibers (that means a lot of drilling). I am going to use approach light towers that will extend into the "water". I am currently detailing the 2nd runway.

Wish we did. Both you guys are GREAT! I share norhtwah's sentiments on your wonderful project ........ I HATE you, both!
