A bridge or a tunnel, for me it is the same (except for the view :) ), but 1 thing they should have done (and can still do) in the A terminal and in the tunnel/bridge: Get faster moving walkways (the flat ones). The principle is easy: You start with a short moving walkway at the speed that they go n...

Hi Bart,

First of all congratulations on the work you already did on this site. It looks already very good. One more thing to report:

I tried to go to the downloads, but got an error that it is for registered users only, although I was logged in with my password. Normal or not?
