RCTP Tracking thread [Update - 22/1/23]

RCTP is now released!

UPDATE #2

  • More 3D work is done, including: Tower area, maintenance aprons and remote aprons
  • Work on the main terminal buildings will begin now
  • Due to the holiday season, I am on holiday abroad (as well as revising for national level exams) and the expect time of completion is around the start of January
  • However, enjoy this WiP in the meantime of the CAL apron and the towers in the background!

    Note: I have been notified the old tower has been torn down. I will make the change and remove it

CAN YOU BE THE FIRST TO FIND MORITZ?

(Its not very hard)

Happy holidays to all! Stay safe!
