Complimenti per il tuo lavoro, se posso fare una richiesta potresti provare a fare l' aeroporto di Birgi Trapani LICT. Ps se vuoi io ho un 3d fatto con sketchup del terminal da migliorare nelle texture ed altro ma almeno e' un inizio. Su Birgi default non si possono vedere tutti quegli alberi lateralmente alla pista,
