Hey ua7472000,

let me guess what your airports are:

The first one is LHR, the second one is Osaka and the last one is DFW. Am I right?

I can see flaws. There can not be shrubbery in the center of a taxiway, only grass, otherwise their would be a lot of mulch on taxiways. Second Ft. Worth does not have remote stands between the taxiways and the terminals. Finally, Southwest do not serve DFW, as they are based at Dallas Love Field.

I wish you all good luck. I myself will be moving August 1st 2003 and will not restart on GLVMA until the first of the year. I hardly have time to post anymore. Look out though in early 2004!

Default ADI International...

I don't know about being the best as there are some really good ones that are far more complicated than what I do. However, I've had fun...

I agree! I get my inspirations from everyone else who does such an excellent job of creating their airports. In particular I still think the best I've ever seen was Jao's incredible Manila terminal. Of course Trevor does fantastic work too.

All very good work

I think that Jetsetter was way too critical of the DFW style airport. It looked great in my opinion. Southwest DOES fly out of DFW haven't you heard. They started 1 daily flight R/T DFW-LHR with the newest member of the 737 fleet, the 737-7ST (stealth) invisible to they naked eye! Oh, you think Im joking eh? just look at this photo. There are 9 outside the old Eastern Airlines hanger at ATL being prepared for final delivery to Delta.....the photo is an overhead of the Delta TOC North!

p.s. you have to look close thogh

UA747....great work!

HNL-Chris....great work as well! I LOVE the satellite concourse design, a throwback to some good '60's designs (those are my favorite) LAS, GEG, some others I cant think of at the moment.

The S-7A gate is a good touch as well.

WTF are you talking about? DFW does have remote stands, Terminal B: United Shuttle, and US Air Express
Terminal C: American Eagle
Terminal A: American and American Eagle
Terminal D: Delta Connection
