Connected by terminal C and three taxiway bridges (W1, E7, E8) the airport layout combines the northern part with runway 08L/26L and Apron 3 (new cargo area since 2012) and the southern part with Apron 1 (terminal B), runway 08R/26L, Apron 2, Apron 4 (DHL), Apron 5. Between both parts an airport railway station and the autobahn A14 is connecting to the check-in area of terminal C. Railway and motorway are not modelled in Flightgear. | |||

In August 2012 the completely new modelled terminal C was published on TerraSync. It is built as a connection between the check-in building with car-park and train station in the north and the departure area at terminal B in the south. Due to this efforts it stands on piers like a long bridge from apron 1 to apron 3, crossing different car-parks, a rail-track and the autobahn. | In August 2012 the completely new modelled terminal C was published on TerraSync.

Three bridges connect the terminal with the northern runway. The western bridge (taxiway W1) is used in both directions. The eastern bridges (taxiways E7 and E8) are used as one way taxiways. Due to safety improvements all bridges are equipped with special taxi lights. | ||
Due to changes in the TerraData the bridges had to be repositioned in 2012. | Due to changes in the TerraData the bridges had to be repositioned in 2012. | ||
