KPIT Concourse C - 1:400

[bakejobb_23]

Hey all

This is the next project, a piece of my hometown airport in 1:400. International Gates C55-C61 in its full 2022-present detail down to the correct cracks in the concrete (mostly). I’ve included some wip photos to slightly show the handmade process. Ignore the American Airlines lineup, It’s just to show the look

The only things I have to add are any markings where the jet bridges rest and the brand new patches of concrete that were freshly poured the last few years that have major color differences (squares are marked with a “w”). I am not too thrilled about the color of the red posca pens so if anyone has any recommendations on thin paint markers that have a darker hue of red to them, please let me know! I hope to fully finish this one and get good proper photos with the right airlines soon.

More to come

December 20th, 2024; G-ZBJB, a British Airways 787-8 lands at Pittsburgh International Airport 8:37pm, about a half hour late. As per usual, she's taxied into gate C59 where ground handling gets to work immediately to turn her back around for a 9:45 departure back to London.

Ground services at work, she's heavily serviced for her return flight.



This flight is known to bring over decently sized cargo shipments, as shown being loaded in now:

BA flight 170 finally pushes back at 11:09, over an hour after schedule. Thankfully, they only arrived three minutes after schedule in London the next morning.




Engines spooling up while the passengers tuck themselves into a 6 hour flight. They will be sent to one of the de-icing ramps before departing on runway 28C:



Enjoy.
