Default Description of my airport....

Since i can't post a picture of my airport i'll describe it to you guys
The model i made is that of the YVR (Vancouver International Airport) International terminal. So far i have soccefully assembled the building and i am adding the skylights and ventelation things. When it is done it will have 30 gates and 3 remote stands. The walls of the terminal are what i think fairly acurate except drawn on paper. It will also have the north runway of the airport and the airpot tower.

when i do get the chance i will post some pictures!

Hey yvr_rulz!

I love spotting at YVR whenever I am out there on business, which feels like every month. I love seeing airlines that I don't get to see at YYZ like, Singapore, Phillipines, Alaskan, etc.

Check out my pics taken from Fairmont YVR on airliners.net..

That would be nice .......the Herpa PAL became quite rare. I have 2 Starjets PAL B747....missed out on the HErpa release. Anyway.....I'm with you on this request even if my concentration is on 1:400.
