November 6, 20214 yr Man, their work is outstanding and amazing. But I cant help but see just how ugly this real life airport is. What a mishmash of shapes, geometry, materials, form and flow, just bad.

What a mishmash of shapes, geometry, materials, form and flow, just bad. Cannot disagree - Number of reasons for this. The airport company works closely with its major customers. air New Zealand being its biggest. What they want and what the airport wants are often poles apart in terms of cost and design. The original International terminal was compact and a nice design. Subsequent expansions by different architectural and engineering planning teams over the decades, was around a pragmatic approach to changing regulation requirements and rapid expansion . When I joined (almost 16 years ago, I remember being led into a room that had a large model of the airport of the future. Subsequent development has incorporated aspects of this plan in a bits and pieces approach. This had led to such things as Pier B International having one design for two gates, and a different design and approach for the other 2 gates built just 5 years later. (Gates 15 through 18 if your interested). There are further Large developments planned such as additional multi storied car parks, a new hotel, externally complete, but internally yet to be fitted out, and new Pier Arm - (5 year plan) - also a second runway to the north of the existing one. The CEO's tend to change regularly and also the board (every 5 years or so - the latest lasted 9 ). Like all airports, appointments can be political - and indeed the Government has some say in requirements - So all these factors have led to the loss of attractively designed cohesive long term design plan for the airport. The only real solution is to build a brand new terminal (costing billions) north of where we are positioned now, on slightly higher ground - but I cannot see this happening in the next xx years. - Just my 2 cents!

Domestic props can remain on 23/05 for convenience and the northern runway has the capability to land the big jets

It's Flightbeam and it's a region where I frequently fly.

November 7, 20214 yr It looks great. It's not up to Flightbeam I know, but I wish we could get better water masks in the bay and approaching the airport. I used to have Orbx north Island for FSX, and the mud flats and water depth effects were phenomenal. I miss this rather than the uniform blue water we have now. Hopefully, as NZ is quite popular with the flying community, and there are a lot of airports and scenery/city enhancements already out there, maybe it would be great area for an official world update from Asobo in 2022.
