For you aviation buffs.....

Planes actually take-off. They put a lot of effort into this.

That is amazing !! the only thing missing was the heavy rainstorm, but it was probably there too [;)]

Big Foot really does exist. I seen him almost get hit by the one plane.[:D][:D][:D]

I've seen various videos of this huge model... I think it looks more realistic at night.

The detail is phenomenal and if I ever get back to Germany I plan to go and spend some time.

Here's the website that shows it all...

If you look very closely through the terminal windows, you can see the passengers getting groped while going through security and the baggage handlers stealing stuff from suitcases. [:D]

Wow, that is amazing! I hope they bust the pilot of the Thai Airlines for speeding on the ramp![8D]

Just some of the little stuff that most probably don't notice like in one area they have a Lockheed Electra parked on the ramp. It doesn't move, but it is nearly perfect in every detail.
I also caught sight of 2 small Cessna's (looked like 150's)parked beside a chopper in front of the fire dept. on the R.H side of the screen. [:)]

The airport is just a side show to the Railroad side of it. I could spend some time looking that layour over.

Planes? Uh hellooooo those are some amazing giant human replicas. The detail and motion is incredible. The things they do with robotics these days.

Oh by the way - not only did they build an airport-model, they also made a whole other section of the model...

Plus, they built in some "hidden features" that possibly only the lucky will see - like a couple making love in the bushes...
