not really, the only arline that wont be present will be taca, i have the american and continental models, and i have copa models, ad i have an iberia model. i have a taca from schabak which i could sneak in there, it just wouldnt be too accurate.

btw,

there are lots of european and other airlines that offer charter flights to roatan and san pedro sula during summer, like cayman airways and europeair and i think those both have models out there.


one more question, has anybody heard any updates about whether or not Iberia will move their miami hub to san pedro sula? there was immense amount of talk about it in late may early june, but i havent heard word since, other then "there is talk"

so, does anybody have any pictures of this airport (san pedro sula)

Thumbs up good luck there!

hope u get the documentation u need to make an accurate airport.

i am planning to build a replica of the hong kong int'l airport, and i already have tons of documentation, but since that airport has 80 gates, i don't think i can just take over the entire house yet.

either i move elsewhere or i move elsewhere

again, good luck with your work
