First produced in 1954, the Airport Administration (also referred to as "Terminal") came in only the one-piece illustrated box until the current issue appeared. This building has many delicate parts that are often missing or broken, making this kit one of the hardest to obtain in unbroken condition. Most of these parts are not available as reproductions and we’ve listed these below.

Aircraft Boarding Lights
There are two of these "glow-in-the-dark" lights that are located on the runway side of this structure. In the illustration their location is circled in RED with the arrows pointing to them. These lights are similar to what Bachmann used on many other structures. Often these lights are missing. Reproductions are available.

Roof Ladder
This part is often missing from the top of this building. It has not been reproduced.

Roof Railings
These side railings that hold the roof ladder into position at the top of this structure. They are often found missing or broken. No replacement parts have been made.

Current Issue Airport Terminal

The current issue of the Airport Terminal has a GRAY roof and trim that distinguishes it from the older issues. This color has never been used on this piece before. Click on the thumbnail image to the right to see a larger view.
