'''Scenery in TerraSync:''' The hub (warehouse, hangar and aprons) is modelled in the scenery. In 2012 its redesign for TerraSync started. First all lampposts at apron 4 had been replaced with those which fit into the correct layout of every single parking position. Afterwards lots of goods and ground vehicles where placed. As soon as some missing storage buildings are modelled, the new content of apron 4 will be published on TerraSync. Last modifications will take place when the new [[Airport data (apt.dat) update|850-standard layout]] of EDDP will be created in the future. | '''Scenery in TerraSync:''' The hub (warehouse, hangar and aprons) is modelled in the scenery.
