You teaser........! When can I try some of this stuff? Excellent work.

Well. I'm just kicking my heels waiting for young Andrew to get his finger out.

I know the feeling only too well. This stuff is so time-consuming but satisfying when you get it right. I enjoy looking at your shots so maybe we'll leave it until it's finished. Thanks for the offer anyway. I'm not sure AOL would cope with an attachment that size. We don't all have broadband you know.

Thanks Ric - your comments very much appreciated.

For a few weeks in the summer I got a bit demoralised - couldn't see an end to the job and started thinking again that I'd taken on too much. But in a way the short break has helped because now i'm back to it again with a lot more enthusiasm.

I've got very close to the place - not surprising when you think I've trawled through literally thousands of photographs - every single one that I've been able to get on the Internet from any source I could find. And I've been trying to work as accurately as it's realistically possible to do to the ones I've used as references.

I've said it before I know, but I'm conscious of the fact that this may be the last time this place is modelled for flightsim. Almost every major feature has now gone (all of the HAECO/Swire/Cathay complex, all of the cargo terminal, all of the runway except a tiny section in what was the middle, almost all of the taxiways and the whole of the 'new' apron used by Cathay) leaving just the main terminal, the new (and still possibly the old) fire station and the Government Flying Service buildings. So I'm trying to create something that is historically accurate and hopefully recognisable to anyone who knew the place.

This will also include all of the key features in the locality of the airport, including key buildings (like the ones pictured) and the elevated road system hopefully. I've just managed to get hold of local road maps showing the layout (which is how I know road names!)

Just hope it will all be worth the effort because it could well be last thing I ever do the time it's taking! 

Roger, very original!!
I love it!
Your scenery is great. Sometimes a cruise through the countryside to the airport is good for the senses! LOL
Keep em' comming!!
