LEGO City 60261 Central Airport

LEGO City set 60261, Central Airport, depicts a civilian airport scene within the Airport subtheme. Released in 2020, it contains 286 pieces and focuses on air travel, ground staff, passengers and everyday activity around a city airport.

Central Airport is part of LEGO City, specifically the Airport subtheme. The set presents a general urban airport setting rather than a licensed location or story property. Its subject fits the wider City approach, where transport, public services and everyday civilian roles are represented at minifigure scale.

The set contains 286 pieces and 6 minifigures. The lineup consists of a pilot with black torso, black legs and black hat, a ground crew member with medium blue Octan logo shirt, tan legs and red cap with hair, another ground crew member with orange safety vest, blue legs and red hard hat with ear defenders, a man in a sand blue suit with red tie, a woman in a dark purple jogging suit with white hair and large glasses, and a man in a white tank top with windsurfer print.

This set is suited to builders who want an airport scene for a LEGO City layout, with room for passenger movement, staff roles and general travel storytelling. It can stand alone as a compact airport display or connect thematically with other City transport sets. Within the Airport range, it functions as a broad scene builder with several character types rather than a single vehicle or figure pack.
