Funny thing about this set is I cannot even add a review to it on bricksets as it says set is "Not yet released"
Let me go find the minifigs and maybe build the tow car as it looks funky.
EDIT:
HAHAHA I had more fun building the small car and the minifigs than the plane itslef!
Here are some cool pics:
What I built:
The minifigs in this set:
This was cool the baggage car, it even has 3 baggages!
hehehehe
The blue one looks slightly longer due to the extra door there. Its got nicer wings too. But being blue it kinda sucks. Makes it harder to make it QANTAS and whenever I think of planes some reason I think of QANTAS. Guess its all those ads back in the day. With that song n all.
Might make room now and build the terminal and the radar system.
EDIT:
Wow just finished building the airport and the radio tower!
It was interesting. The airport had a lot of features. - Revolving door that actually turned, lights around the airport, security checkpoints, baggage xrays, a ticket counter with a computer, vending machine I think, radio antennas.
There are way to many photos to link here so im just gonna post a few. The rest will go on brickshelf.

In summary overall as a whole the 3182 set is really awesome. It has so many componets and sections very fun to build. Initially after building the plane I was gonna give it 4/5 but now after building everything else Id give it 4.5/5. A must if you want to own an airport.
Here is the combined image of the set:
