My first generation Airport. I like roomy airport designs, so here you can see the wing span of the big aircraft is accommodate by using the 16 stud wide houses to line the runway, and the use of the taxiing yard on the opposite side.
You can see my custom built Push-back tractor and air ambulance helicopter in the background.

It's been Drama and the City ever since Carrie Bradshaw and her Louboutin heels hit the streets of the upper East Side to begin filming "Sex and the City 2" on Tuesday. Hordes of fans began bombarding the set as early as 7 a.m. on the first day of shooting, and it seems that the return of the fashionable foursome - and their hunky male co-stars - has caused a little too much excitement. Film security has had to tighten its game when dealing with the crazed Carrie, Charlotte, Samantha and Miranda wanna-bes. "They looked more like they were protecting the President than Sarah Jessica Parker," said an onlooker at 84th St. and Park Ave., where the leggy leading lady was repeatedly being filmed hailing a cab. "At one point, teenage girls were practically trampling each other trying to get to Sarah Jessica as she was walking back to her trailer, but her security team was shoving everyone out of the way." When SJP noticed her detail's tactics, she implored them not to "hurt her fans." Said the onlooker: "She looked upset and extremely concerned. The guards were getting pretty rough." The muscles aren't concerned only about the "SATC" ladies. By 9:30 yesterday morning, they were already fighting off fans who had lined up on 52nd St., where Chris Noth and SJP were shooting a scene inside an office building that's reportedly serving as Mr. Big's. "The security team looked really anxious when a male fan approached Chris for a photo," another spy says. Like Parker, Noth told the detail to back off and happily stopped for the fan. At least the fearless followers got reassurance that Carrie and Mr. Big are back on track - they were both sporting wedding rings during filming yesterday, while that accessory was conspicuously missing from Parker's hand on Tuesday. Later yesterday morning, the hysteria continued as fellow "SATC" star Cynthia Nixon (l.) had to be rerouted to her trailer when crowds began aggressively approaching her. "People were screaming and trying to push past guards," a source said. Onlookers were then told that she wouldn't be filming her scene after all. "The fans were just too much," continued the snitch. "Security looked legitimately concerned for her safety." As Miz Bradshaw would say, hey, that's New York!
One more shot of the group of hummers trying to feed here and with a better definition of the ruby throat that has now remained, after many of the others moved on.

‘Scene’ Down Memory Lane once more in Sheffield /2
on Dennis Basford’s railsroadsrunways.blogspot.co.uk’
For part 1 see blog posted 24/12/2020.
On the 12th. of May 2013. ‘First South Yorkshire’ (FSY) organised a bus event to mark 100 years since the introduction of the motor bus in Sheffield.
It was held at ‘FSYs Olive Grove garage which is adjacent to the
‘Midland Main Line’ about half a mile to the South of Sheffield’s railway station.
A stones throw from the garage is the site of what was Queens Road tram depot where many of Sheffields trams were built and housed.
What is now the bus parking area at Olive Grove for many years was home to
‘Sheffield United Tours’ fleet of luxury coaches which eventually passed to ‘National Travel East’.
A part of Sheffield then that is steeped in the city’s transport history.
At the time ‘FSY’ were phasing out the ‘Barbie’ livery and replacing it with the mixture of pale blues and greys that is fortunately being replaced as I write with something that harks back to ‘Sheffield Transport’s earlier livery.
Google BD12 TCO to see an example or see page 12 in ‘Buses’ magazine for December 2020.
Apart from ‘FSY’s current fleet there were samples of earlier Sheffield buses and a good selection of preserved buses.
The current fleet at that time are represented by two Volvo/Wright double deckers that had been painted in ‘Heritage’ liveries from the past and a brand new Wright Streetllte D/F.

Nothing unusual about the coach you might say, standard ‘NatEx’ fare but what I did like was the wrap round rear advert for Phillipine Air Lines.
