Very nice!!! Some clearer pictures would be welcome. Interesting and innovative design and something original instead of Herpa buildings is always good to see...keep going

aircanada.......Nice job! Good to see some new ideas and material in here. I like what you've done with the "street lamp" style lamps. I may even steal that idea from you, but with a difference. I think I may just make something similar, but spray them metallic silver. Great job, keep it up!

Hi AirCanada,
finally a new airport on DAC: I like what you created, what did you use for the buildings? Plastc, paper, or a mix of both? I hope to see more pictures in the future, maybe with a little bit more quality if you can.
Once again nice airport!

Lollo

Referring to copalover the oc 763 canadain is actually a 1:600 model from shcbank..i have a few of them at my airport taking up gate spcae..while i wait to get more 1:500 models to replace them

Referring to lollomz i will try to get some more clearer pictures in the future digital camera permitting....um for materials i used evergreen platics for all the buildings
