Yeah, heathrow is a real chaos: take a look at the taxiways to the runway (6 planes in a polonaise waiting for takeoff). My goal is to make it a bit (or better) as an airport I made before: Amsterdam Airport Schiphol:

it is nice and smooth, i like that

Thanks, that's because i've made them as easy as possible to get a place for them in the "Best of 3D Warehouse"-layer. And I'll place the models also in a flightsim called FlightGear (http://www.flightgear.org) so they have to be easy and phototextured.

Hi,

I've not yet finished this projects, but I couldn't wait to show you some screens. So here they come.
Please notice that the models are not done! If you find any mistakes or something else please tell me.

could it be that there is no depth in the buildings ? On my screen it looks like the complete structure has been drawn on 1 surface ?

I think that's because the shadows are off
If you like to view them in GE please go to http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/cldetails?mid=186fb6f6dcac2cd22b7b9321dac9669c
