Have you checked to see if the airport has a website? How about local webpages from the nearby city/town? Perhaps some aviation guy or college might have some pictures up...

Besides actually going to Hector International (and for the fact I worked there for a while) and taking pictures (or working from memory) the web was my best friend. You could always email some local avaition groups and see if they would take pictures for you.

Don't forget Google Maps (click between map and sattelite views). It won't give you detail but sattelite view will sure be accurate for placement of everything.

technically harkonnen was correct, think of Google Maps as Google Earth but alot easier with no download and in your web browser

http://maps.google.com

I use Google Earth all the time, and Its the best thing out there, If Only microsoft would use those satellites for the ground in FS9

(yes, i do know that some of the close ones are aerial photos)
