Hi all,

Thanks for the pics, but those are of Gatwick. :) We needed those too, though - a "quickie" Gatwick is also on tap (using library objects for the buildings, etc.), just about all done except for some details. I don't know if the railway station, etc. will make it into this version - just air side details.

Thanks again,
Tom Gibson

Hi Tom,

Sorry no photos of EGKK just a pic of the model of what they were expecting to build. From same publication circa 1959/60.
