You can build thousands of them; no problem.  ;)

When in game, open the tab menu and click on roads (or hit F6).  In the window that pops up, there's a runway tab.  In there you can specify different parameters for the runway.  When you click "Make Runway", the runway will be placed directly beneath in the direction you are currently looking.  If you ever want to delete a runway, just left click on the runway with the dialog open and press the delete button.

Hi, guys!

Now I know to make runways. How do I make taxiways, tarmacs? Thanks!

(I'm always replying to you it seems :P)
The best thing to do is try everything out. As per the usual of what I say, eventually everything will be there, but in the mean-time, if anyone has any cheats and tricks they know to make them, do put them somewhere. If they're well-written enough, they might go into some eventual Guide To Outerra.
My best guess is that the taxiways of the stock 'airports' are just roads, but I may be wrong. They could be thin runways :P

Hi, GHAO!

How do I make the apron where the airplanes park and where the hangars are? How do I make the bend on the taxiways that goes from the apron to the runway via taxiway? Thanks!

        Cheers,

Hi, guys!

How do I level the terrain so I can put the hangar and other buildings on the ground? Thanks!

         Cheers,

It's all done via the road editor. Just toy with it a bit, you'll be able to see what it does - setting width, type of surface, etc ...

Also, with the road editor tool open you can select the existing airport aprons, taxiways and see how they are done, modify them.
