I saw your pics on brickshelf was amazed! Do you have anymore detail pics of
the airport? For our last display at a local mall I was responsible for an
airport for a static display. Are the planes and terminal minifig scale?
While my next one might not be as big as that one I'll try to keep to
minifig scale. I realaise that you might not be ther person to ask but I'm
hoping the person/people that made it will reply.

Southern California REALLY DOES HAVE  A LEGO TRAIN CLUB!  Our participation
at this weekend's GATS in Anaheim, CA proved to be very successful and we
came out with a first place award for our work.  As expected, like many
others, a most common response heard was "I didn't know LEGO made
trains???".  People there were very intrigued with the creations and, as
expected, the kids there went nuts.  We began with lots of info fliers of
the club at opening on Saturday and before Sunday was over we were out
(Post-It (tm) to the rescue).  Set up and take down went very smoothly, with
some of the expected first time glitches during operation (rail yard a bit
small) but managed well.  A rendition of this GATS layout is available
through our site (http://www.scltc.org/pages/layouts/gatsjanuary2002.htm)
but photos won't be up for some time (best guess is about a week).  A notice
will be posted  on .trains as soon as they are.

Hello Tim, We will have more pictures and lots of explanation on our web site(www.scltc.org) in a few days, but to answer your question, yes, the airport is in minifig scale and it is incredible. Stay tuned... Robert Powell SCLTC (23 years ago, 8-Jan-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.trains)

Tim - I built the airport terminal and my dad built the airplanes and jetways. My brother added a motor to the small prop plane to spin the propellers. They are all minifig scale. I decided while building my terminal that the LEGO standard 4-wide (...) (23 years ago, 8-Jan-02, to lugnet.general, lugnet.trains)
