New to Blender and 3d modelling

I’m in the final stages of designing a scenery area for a soaring simulator, one of the last stages is designing a small area of 3d objects buildings, runway textures etc.

I new to 3d modelling, what will be my best options for starting.

Could someone point me in the right direction for a suitable tutorials or would this be better in buying the manuals that are available.

Hope someone can help.
