Bermuda Government unveiled a made-to-scale model of new airport


The Department of Airport Operations (DAO) recently unveiled a scale-model of the proposed redevelopment of Bermuda’s airport.  The model is currently located in the Departure Lounge near the United Airlines check in at the L. F. Wade International Airport and includes renderings of the proposed new airport terminal.
 
The airport model was commissioned by the Aecon Group and built to scale by RJ Models (Global) Inc, a world renowned A-list model making company in Hong Kong, and features an intricate design with a high level of detail throughout. It is 6 ft long x 5 ft wide x 3ft high.
 
The 1:200 scale replica of the exterior of the terminal includes life like images of people, automobile, aircrafts and the lush landscaping.
 
“This model is designed to help everyone have a visual of what the new airport will look like when finished,” said Deputy Premier and Minister of Finance the Hon. E. T. Richards, JP, MP.
“It really shows the concepts for our much-needed new airport terminal building and it is designed for maximum realism with astonishing precision.”
 
The redevelopment of L.F. Wade International Airport is being advanced under a development agreement between the Governments of Canada and Bermuda. The Canadian Commercial Corporation (CCC) is a Crown Corporation for the Government of Canada and brings expertise in international contracting for complex purchases and the experience to select highly capable suppliers, such as Aecon. More updates about the L.F. Wade International Airport redevelopment project can be found on www.gov.bm and on Facebook at www.facebook.com/AECONBermuda.
