I keep seeing NooBs talk about Airprots, but I still don't know what one is. If Chicago has one, I've never seen it. By the way, is your friend by any chance named n747ua on W900? I think hes bluffing you. Unless he happens to live somewhere in on a empty floor in Sears Tower or in a giant warehouse.

Well, for your info, no I am not bluffing, the design is a section fold out system almost like movable train layouts, it may seem very big, but if you do the caculations it is smaller then you think. I plan to have the airport on a pulley system in a two and a half car garge. It is all sorted out and no I am not bluffing.
P.S.
I am indeed n777co's friend and my name is n747ua on Wings900, thats why I defend him on wings900, but trust me, when someone like muicciui or whatever his name is insults another member like he did n777co, I would defend the member that was insulted the same way.

So AAeagle (or should I say n747ua), is it you building the airport (or should I say airprot). Anyways, by bluffing, I meant that to mean a range of things, from just simply talking crap to being completly out of your mind. Tell me, what warehouse in Chicago are you going to do all of ORD? Being a native of Chicago myself, and living there, as well as visiting there a few times, I have to say, most houses don't even have rooms that can support something the size of a 1:400 ORD. Maybe a 1:400 CGX could work better if you actually want to model off a actual airport.

I made some calculations (yes I have nothing else to do) Just to fit all the O'hare terminals you would need a board 19ft x 26 feet and you still wouldn't have space to fit any one runway completely. Even if you had the space, whats the point of making such a monstrosity. Its impossible to even reach the center of the diorama without having to walk on it.

Did you guys just completly ignore a section off my post, or did you just not want to see it. It is going to be built in sections, it won't consist of a bunch of boards glued together, I don't have that amount of room. Each section is on a 48" by 96" board, I will have a quite a few boards and when I setup, I will only setup a section, not the whole thing. So try again.

Did you also remember to add in the Cargo terminals and hangers?

Your doing it again, I replied to your original post. It said "what do you mean by bluffing?" I guess while I was typing it up, you must obviously have been editing it.

I will say this however. Most of the runways will not be there actual length. I don't have that much room. Second, I did edit my original post becuase I had read over the original thread. Third, you guys at wings900 have pretty funny and idiotic theory about me being n747ua and n777co. I will tell you right now, n777co is not me. First of all, n777co likes continental, I don't, he attends Schuamburg High school, I attend Hoffman Estates high school, his mother works for United, my'n is considering AA, his collection is small, my'n isn't. The list goes on. Again, these are only words, but if you start wanting fingerprints and photos, I say just continue thinking I am n777co because Brandon(n777co) and I both know that you are wrong.

P.S.
If you would like more proof other then photos and fingerprints, tell me and I will do my best to answer, that is if it isn't to personal.

I call male bovine fecal matter!
Yeah, like we all can check your IPs.
Second, you did edit your original post, it even said edited by you four mins after I started to type. I got the original email notice that said "And what do you mean by bluffing?" and nothing else. If you want to prove your point, then you have to do it with more honor than cheating your way through to make miucinni and me look like total idiots that don't read the whole post. And third, It's not really my theory, I only suggested that it could have been a case of MPD (Multiple Personality Disorder.) Thankfully, waffle (JB) was kind enough to do a IP check I suppose (admin and most mods have that kind of power.)

I don't care about that, just improve your posting quality and use the search function more and you'll get more respect out of me and possibly miucinni and all the other Wings members as well. Oh and use more honor than saying one thing, and then changing it completly when I'm typing up a response. Hmm, tell me comrade, what do you mean by "I both?"

Okay AAeagle you prooved me wrong. So you're not n777co; I still want to see how you're going to pull this airport out of your a$$ (I suggest you ask n777co for assistance since he familiar with it.)

So if you have any complaints about me or n777co, post them, see if I or Brandon care. Just remember, you or any other wings900 member can kick me off the site. Only the Wings900 team members can, and if they did, I would just reroute my I.P. address and start a new account.
So by what you said, we are all Wings900 team members . How come I didn't get the memo! Otherwise, why are you responding if you don't care, and if you do create a new account, we'll still know its you, many people changed their account names and got caught out in the end.

ORD is going to be a long project, it will also cost alot, thats why I am going to take my time and do section by section, auto tape and paint, then when the boards are done, I will be scratch building the terminals. It will cost alot but when you take your time and spend little by little, it does not put you in debt.

At least I can actually AGREE with that. But Seeing miucinni's calculations, how are you going to get all those terminals in there, even if you do it section by section, in the end, it might not fit in any room in your house but possibly the basement (I forgot houses up there had them) or in the garage could work if your parents let you use them.

To tell you the truth, by the time all this is completed, I will probably be out of the house and it will become my newest problem. But when it happens, I'll have to deal with it. It may just have to sit in public storage until I have a house.

For your information, I already have a airport on a 48" by 96" board. My father is a Contracter and has a garge full of high quality Porter cable and Delta power tools. So I think I am set. And I got responses from photos of my airport, I got alot of good feedback. Lets see your airport.

I'm not as privileged you are to have the space to use as you did. I used the something that was durable enough to withstand storage, but at the same time, light and portable (thus why I had to put it on a foam board that was 36x48.) The airport in it's current state is actually a experiment to see if I could actually pull off something of this magnatude, even in a basic form (which I have). Since my mom won't let me put it anywhere that dosn't damage the planes, I have to only bring it out for photo ops. I'm still planning to make it better, as I've always said, NWL is a evolving model airport. I've gotten the design for the first terminal 50% done. After that, the part that still has the foil will disappear and be replaced by a new NWL Terminal "A". The other two will follow after I make a hangar for it, since my mom destroyed the old one (from LEGOs) while on her destrution derbies (erm. I mean purges, no thats not the word, ah, cleaning my room thats it!) Right now, I'm looking at what I can get around the house, since nowhere in my town do I see evergreen or any other plastic sheets for sale.
If you want to see my terminal, then look in my signature there is a link to it, its not great, but at least the layout is custom. The buildings will get better, that is for sure.

LOT 737-300, that post was not meant for you. Muiccini said something pointless then deleted it. I will say this about your airport, it looks great and you used what you had or have. I say great job. and good luck making another airport.
