Also with the new palm tree I imagine (1 piece leaves, 1 piece trunk).
I noticed that the runways seem to have six studs on the edges.
The Century Skyway had seven (and even older airports had nine). The
windsock is also different. In the old set it is a 2 x 2 x 2 cone in
white with red stripes, in the new one it looks to be solid red.
Still a wonderful set! I spent many hours drooling over the original
when it was in a local toy store.
