Am I getting a bit predictable?
Tony - those are brilliant, too. If this is a competition, I'm all for it. Glad I don't have to judge it, though!
What I need now is a US airport that hasn't changed much since 1980 (yeah, right

)so I can furnish it with retro traffic and do some of these 727s justice. Or Bermuda, perhaps? :think:

The airport your looking for is LaGarbage -- it still has the original AA hangars and the PAA seaplane hanagrs on the north side
Oh yes Tony the third one -- Is the first 727 I ever flew on from JFK-ATL in Late 1968 - when United's trolley dollys were
all young and wore very short uniforms
viz -
Problem is they are all still flying for United :o

Brilliant idea, Leif! (I'm assuming that's an affectionate term of endearment for La Guardia

) There's a freeware LGA at Avsim which should be better than the stock one and I've had a flip through Airliners.net for 70s/80s shots. There are some
very interesting aircraft and liveries and most of them are available as AI.
So that looks like my next project, then, but not for a while :roll: Install LGA, divert WoAI traffic, populate it with retro AI and fly some 727s in and out. And that will give me a classic airport in the US, Europe (Manchester) and the Far East (Kai Tak). Excellent. Thank you.
