What airports have shops specifically dedicated to aircraft models? I live in the US, so I'm talking about US airports. Does ORD still have that model shop?

No, it would be a short taxi ride away cause its on the opposite side of the terminals. For more info I would ask Chris Kilroy(the founder of jetphotos) about it, he works there (I think).
heres a link to his account, you can contact him from there i assume: http://forums.jetphotos.net/member.php?u=1

SFO had several, now they have just a few retailers that carry few models, mostly snap-tight. I've seen them at ORD and DEN used to have one in the B concourse.
My opinion of them? Over priced. WAY over-priced. Not worth the purchase. Get the model online, the instant gratification isn't usually worth the extra $10 in your pocket.
Then again, $15 for GJs is great. When I went to an ORD model shop some years ago, schabak models were $10 a peice! So it depends on the shop I guess.

I sometimes see even now a Gemini Jets plane for $39.99 thats only $19 or so online, or a Dragon 744 going for $50 that would cost $27 or so online. Crazy prices at some of these places!
