The FSX one was not convincing enough! I have tried to make it close to realistic as possible using Airport Scenery Creator v1.37 and the objects that are available for use from FSX SP2 - Acceleration. Hope this will make your stop-over more enjoyable!

Installation:

1. Drop the Fwcl.bgl and Fwcl_cvx.BGL files into your FSX/Addon scenery/scenery folder, AND FURTHER MORE move the Scenery_Global_Scenery file (Airport_Buildings_AP.bgl) to the "Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Scenery\Global\Scenery" folder. This is because the main terminal building is not standard part of the FSX SP2 Acceleration Object Library - If you do not have it already.
