I borrowed heavily from the last two vehicles for inspiration, but the air stair chassis was created new this week. Unlike the luggage conveyor, I used the Subdivision Surface modifier on the chassis for the air stair which helped the model look cleaner, particularly around the wheel wells. Normally, I start from the ground up. This time, I got the stair extension/retraction mechanism working first before attaching it to a vehicle.
