Description

A small airport on the carpet

The set models a compact city airport with a terminal area and an aircraft. At 914 pieces it is a sizeable town set that needs more floor space than the usual small police or fire sets. The twelve minifigures point clearly to the play concept: there are enough people for passengers, ground staff and crew all at once, so you can act out the whole journey from check-in to take-off. Even the luggage carts and vehicles on the apron find drivers this way.

White and grey with yellow touches

White and light bluish grey set the tone, black provides contrast, and yellow adds splashes of colour. This scheme suits terminals, runways and aircraft, and it combines well with other city sets. The parts list on this page lets you see exactly which bricks come in which colour, which helps if you are looking for windows or plates for buildings of your own. The yellow stands out in particular, since it rarely appears in large quantities.

175 unique parts

Among 914 pieces, 175 different parts is a fairly high level of variety. It suggests plenty of special elements that make vehicles and buildings more convincing. The building process should be varied as a result, with larger plate work broken up by small detail steps. If you enjoy working on several models within one set, this suits you, because the buildings and vehicles can be assembled separately. That lets you split the build into short stages, or share it with someone else.

Checking and reusing

Since the set dates from 2004, it is normally traded second-hand. The parts list here helps you check a copy for completeness. And if you want to use the bricks differently, the “What can I build?” tool shows which models your collection can make, so the airport might turn into a station or an entirely new building. Larger plates and window elements work especially well for that. Just note down beforehand which pieces you want to keep.
