Severus A Posted July 7, 2016 (edited) I've decided to build an airport stair vehicle adapted to the classic 4 wide airplanes. As far as I know, the only mobile stair for 4 wide planes could be found in City Airport set no 10159. The plane in the picture is the original plane from 6396 set.

Mestari Posted July 7, 2016 Nice, but would like it better with bigger, modern style planes. This one is a bit too big for the classic planes ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Littleworlds Posted July 7, 2016 Nice little vehicle. It has an elegant design and the passengers seem pretty pleased too! Its certainly nicer than jumping on and off the plane. Ruins the whole holiday experience Also bonus points for the orange goggles the driver is wearing. Makes them look nicely mad Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikaelsol Posted July 7, 2016 Nice solution! I've been trying to build an airport stair vehicle, but never got the proportions right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legocity2713 Posted July 8, 2016 Very nice work, but the proportions seem a little wonky; I would change the steps to 1x2 plates instead of 1x4. Other than that, really nice work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BrickCurve Posted July 8, 2016 I agree able the proportions though the effect is still good. Good job getting the angle of the hand rail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everything in the LEGO hobby is fun and perfectible. Indeed, in the Classic Town world is a challenge to hit the right proportions because they are not accurate and not in a strong relation with the real world. I've made another stair vehicle, smaller than the previous one and in a different way. I could not choose between them because I like both :) I think I'll keep them.

SollX Posted July 8, 2016 As a child i always wanted to buid a stair vehicle. These two are a perfect solution to the problems i had beck then. Personaly i think you should have the front of the first one and the back and stairs of the second. Great job Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legocity2713 Posted July 8, 2016 Wow, that second model you posted with the fixed scale is absolutely perfect. :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I must say that the use of " perfect" word in two consecutive comments makes me feel very well I'm sure that the near future will bring a lot of beautiful solutions and also a lot of beautiful challenges in the 4 wide way of building integrated in a neo classic town vision. There are a lot of builders who are using such kind of techniques. In fact history is a source of inspiration and improvement. It should be used Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
