I am seeking guidance on locating some extra items I need for an Airport scene. Does anybody know where I could possibly locate the following A set of steps used by passengers at smaller airports to get from the tarmac upto the aircraft door suitable for passengers or a modern airport style walk on gantry way from a terminal building to the aircraft door. Also if anybody knows where I could source some buildings that could pass for terminals or Airport buildings. I have the warehouse from the market place which will pass as a hangar, but a proper hanger would not go amiss :-) BTW you guys have given me some great advice on seeking some other props I have asked about in the past. I just wanted to say Thanks. Regards Nick

For buildings, try Lava and especially Great Buildings Online - search for "airport" and you'll get four to choose from. Some of the buildings here are very low poly, but it depends what you want to do with them. You may be able to adapt other buildings from their collection.
Alverson Fantasy Art Studio has the urban construction kit, revolving door, a bar and probably lots of other useful stuff for interiors.
Arc's Pinup Studio has an escalator which might pass for airline steps - but will certainly come in handy for your terminal building.

Actually, the Great Buildings Online meshes are in 3DMF format - unless you have something that will convert them, they won't be any use in Poser. Apologies for the misdirection.

Zippo has some lobby and reception room furnishings that you might find helpful, at Laboratory 108.

Didn't Steve Shanks have a small-town type terminal building background? I vaguely remember something that you could park a bi-plane in front of. The steps which are rolled out to smaller planes are just big cousins of the aluminum steps used around a home or shop. You are lucky to get a handrail! Carolly

I was looking for another project to practice modeling on, so I made this for you. I hope it works OK for what you need.
