Part Two of a Three part series - Down To Earth

Part 2 is showcasing all the details you see around the GA/Tower/Eagle Air/CTC area via BOB and then also a drive around to the Terminal in my new Beamer smile.gif

lol I took so many photos it was hard to pick out a few to show, what you see here is only fraction of what you see when you're actually there, walking or flying around!
Anyway, I'll let the pics do the talking:

1.Starting where I finished in Part 1, after jumping out of my Cresco

2.The Super Air junkyard showing all its old/broken trucks

3.Super Air fertilizer plane (Fletcher?)

4.Pretty self explanatory really...its the Waikato Aero Club

5.Random building on stilts

6.Nice...'depth'

7.Eagle Airways (Subsidiary of Air NZ) HQ and maintenance facilities

8.Burning drum with awesome flame/smoke effects

9.Cool little helipad

10.LOL awesome engine testing area made out of shipping containers

11.CTC Crew Training Cantre, I had a tour there last year for real and it looks exactly like its real world counterpart, perhaps it needs a few static models though?

12.Lots of signage

13.Airways control tower

14.Awesome view

15.nice detail along the drive esp. the farm fence

16.Looking Right....Modeled road signs, bales, power lines, cows...

17.Looking Left....more detail

18.Off we go

19.Cruising along Airport Rd / SH 21

20.Little flags on the lines to alert aircraft landing and taking off

21.More farm detail

22.Coming up to the Terminal turnoff....theres even a sign to warn me

23.Nice entrance

24.Signs + vegetation

25.Conference Centre

26.again...look you can drive in there!

27.Fuel facilities and carpark

28.Dammit I have to pay to park here

29.looking for a park...not to hard to find in a place like Hamilton smile.gif

30.Arrived in heaps of time to check in...coming in Part 3


Thanks you for looking, Part 3 coming soon ready to show off the Terminal interior and ramp detail, and then for a final departure.

Cheers,
Jimmy

Thank YOU, its just a privilege on my part, love it! That sounds awesome, I must say out of the WHOLE scenery, thats the only thing I found and its not major at all, it would just be nice to see some planes around the CTC and GA area, a bit like you did outside Super Air with the Fletchers smile.gif

Oh and Part Three is up HERE if you want to check it out smile.gif
Enjoy

Jimmy.
