The presence of the '''Airport_II''' IGMD folder in [[Big Blue Box|BBB]] Oni explains why retail Oni contains an '''Airport''' and '''Airport_III''' folder but no "Airport_II". The scripts in this folder are very short and little of the level can be gleaned from them. However, a mention of the animation "KONOKOlev5_outro_run" allows us to pin down '''Airport_II''' as the missing level 5 in the sequence of levelx_Final folders in GameDataFolder. This is consistent with '''Airport''' being linked to level4_Final and '''Airport_III''' being linked to level6_Final.

This level was likely intended as Konoko's final confrontation with the shadowy [[BGI]], which was later excised from the story as Oni's development ran out of time. Fragments of a script for this level can be found in [[Big Blue Box|BBB]] Oni. The scripts contain two cutscenes, one of which describes Konoko setting a bomb and taking cover, and the resulting explosion, and the other cutscene introduces the [[Iron Demon]] that would end up getting cut from the game. The number of the level indicates that these events would take place before Konoko returns to the TCTF to confront Griffin and after meeting with Kerr in the Science Prison.

Below are the only four screenshots we have for the level. Similarities to the architecture in TCTF HQ have been noted, and were explained by Hardy LeBel:

The script for this level, found in the '''ats''' folder in [[Big Blue Box|BBB]] Oni's IGMD, shows that this was a test level for Mukade's teleportation (with a comment referencing the "[[wikipedia:Bamf|bamf]]" sound effect of comic book fame).

The arena [[Credits|Steve Abeyta]] played in when he demoed netplay in 2000 (see [[Multiplayer]] for a video of this demonstration). Looks like it could be BGI HQ, except that there's no similarities with the four screenshots in the BGI section above.
