Loadscrn Airport

Airport is the fifth level in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3. It reappears in Tony Hawk's Underground 2 as a Classic Mode level, and in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater HD as downloadable content. The level has been recreated in the style of play and to match the graphics of each of the games that it has reappeared in.


The origin of this level is unclear as THPS3 doesn't have any direct indications of its location. However, the welcoming billboard states "Welcome to the islands", there are palm trees all around the airport and player can notice the volcano at the entrance of the airport. According to the texture name, this is the Hawaiian volcano (Diamond Head). So we can claim that Airport is located in Hawaii.

However, the globe map in THUG2 mistakenly has it placed in Japan. That made people to presume that airport is located in either Osaka, Fukuoka, or even Kyoto since both levels share the location spot. But there is no Japanese text at all, so this probably was just a random placement without a thought behind it.

Additional info


  • "Now boarding couch, the lower class citizens."


  • "Welcome to the islands"
  • "We lost your bags again"


  • During the development, Neversoft planned to include some stuff which would involve terrorists. After 9/11 it was decided to replace terrorists with pickpockets. However, the pickpocket model file is still called terrorist_a.
  • In THPS3 (PS1) and THUG2, when the music level is turned off, the background sound effects use the same the audio track from both of its appearances. It features speakers over the PA system speaking in somewhat gibberish.
