Atlanta airshow

Hello fellow collectors, on yesterday i attended my first air show here in Atlanta at the Georiga convention center. Being my frist show i dont know if i can rate it. I read that some of you said last years show was'nt that great. But i was pleased with the outcome. I did'nt see many new releases but i found what i was looking for. My purchases included Delta's 757-200- Salt Lake 2002, Philippine Airlines A340-300, one that i had tried to purchase a couple of months ago but it was in pre-order status the new version Delta MD-11, this is a beautiful plane. And i could'nt go to the air show without purchasing my favorite airline the JAL 747-300 Okinawa Super Resort Express. I was hoping to find some new accessorie items but had no luck there. Well i am in the finishing stages of my airport which is 16FT long 4FT wide, working runway and taxiway lighting, two herpa hangars, domestic, and international terminals, fire station, and freight facility.

I was there as well, but I was disapointed by the cost of the models. I normally get them cheaper from internet shops.

Your airport sounds fantastic. I'm hoping that you post some pictures in the not too distant future. Can't wait to see how you accomplished the lighting.
Aloha, Chris
