And photoshopping a moon would be cool too.

Thank you! Good idea on the cars and such, I shall do that. Yeah the runway should look cool, but I should warn in advance...I don't know if my computer can handle a runway with lights. I tried it a while ago, and every time I'd try to export it to Kerkythea, my computer would freeze (keep in mind I had over 1,000 lights). I mean, I suppose I could do it, but I'd have to cut down on the lights, and that may not look completely realistic.
It's worth a shot though, thanks for the ideas.

Wow you've got one serious work of art here. I love airports too, not as much as you obviously, but I seriously love every minute when i'm inside an airport.
I've only been to Sky Harbor, LAX, and Midway, and Bob Hope in Burbank, but thats not a major one hah.
LAX is amazing, although I'm biased cause I love LA.
Sky Harbor, well I dont care much for Arizona, but Sky Harbor is one lovely and clean airport with views of the mountians and downtown Phoenix.
Midway, was pretty dated, it might look good if it was 1995, but eh it was pretty creepy at 1am, but nice in the morning.
Idk why I went ranting about airports, but I'd love to hear your opinions on these airports if you've been to any of them.  |
Hahaha, it's all good. I personally love LAX...it's actually one of my favorite airports. It can be a bitch to connect in when you have to change terminals in a short amount of time, but when you have time to leisurely watch airplanes or go to the In-N-Out right at the end of the runway on Sepulveda, it's incredible.*
Sky Harbor I've only been to once, but I agree, it was a clean and efficient airport. Definately a good airport for geeks like me.
I haven't been to Midway, but if you were there in 1995, then I can definately see why you thought it was dated. The old terminal that you visited was completely torn down in 2000-2001 I believe, and was rebuilt with a shiny new terminal. Burbank is a fun, what I call, little big airport (small airports in big cities).
Seattle is one of the best airports for aircraft spotting, and even connecting. It's a fairly efficient airport, but they have a giant atrium with huge windows that allow for great viewing of all the runways, so there isn't a take-off or landing you can miss. I highly recommend.
Thanks everyone for the feedback!
Anthony
