A lot has changed on the airport since the last update... things have moved forward (a bit slowly) but with my new 1:400 arrival i've started planning out a few big things for the airport.
But before I get in the details of the future of the airport I will show how it is currently.

So lately I've been playing a bit with ground details like the thin black retaining strypes for the yellow lines... and I added some weathering and details.
Since I would want 4 new planes in the short future I definitely need more than 4 parking spaces so I designed a development plan.

The plans are big for the small airport, the biggest change in the form is definitely the change of runway, converting the old one to a taxiway and adding a new and wider runway to the side (45 meters wide).
Another big change is the new aproon area that will be built within the old runway and the current aprron; this will give me the opportunity to build 2 new small / medium parkings that will feature a turning radius and a new road layout.
I will also add a new parking marking in the a350 rated parking so i can use the space better for medium planes.
I have measured all the clearance needed for the planes and the gates and I have come out with the solution of having only the vertical taxi rated for the a350 to pass since i wouldn't be able to fit it on the other taxis.
