Greetings.

Once upon a time, rail was king - the end-all solution to long distance transportation. Today, much of this has been eroded by land and air. Regardless, their co-dependence is more important than ever as transport systems seek to become even more efficient. This week's theme is Aviation. Please send your theme suggestions for subsequent competitions via email or Skype by clicking on the little icons below my username.

One screenshot allowed per entrant. Screenshots must adhere to the theme and the Trainz Forum Code of Conduct.

Submission closes on July 16 at 12:00 noon UTC/GMT/Zulu time.

Cheerio,
Nicholas

- Aren't we the ones supposed to make a loop ?

- Ah! Good. Started getting worried....
- Then you die, I become a movie superstar, everybody forgets you, you'll never star in a movie again...

A vintage visitor causes a bit of interest for some locals.
The Airfield is on my Langen Inselbahn route, museum port in the background, narrow gauge railway station to the right of the airfield buildings.
