Preview video....coming "soon"

FREEWARE!!Hey many thanks to SHEZ AND IAN!!!

Wow it's been a long time since I heard anything about that project. Thought it was dead.

Wow...that's so cool. Yes definitely thanks Shez and Ian!Mark

Wow, that is just amazing! Thanks for the heads up :(

Awesome indeed, I can't wait to fly there :(

I cannot wait! Philadelphia is my hometown.

Gotta say that looks really impressive! I know Trelane (chuck) is going to be doing backflips when he sees this...-P

Been following this one; glad to see it's nearing the finish line. Looks amazing by any standard.

It's been in development for awhile. Hopefully a released is imminent now...

Sorry, Paul: Gotta save the backflips for when it's finished and I'm actually touching down there in my PMDG or Level-D! At my age I've only got a (very) limited number of flips left and I can't just be back flippin' around willy nilly, dontchaknow. Hope you're mending well -- every time I see a bike while driving I think of you! KPHL is my home airport too -- how could I convince these guys to skip the videos and finish this bad boy up? :( Chuck B.

Your wore out from your co-pilot Jack Chuck! He's great in the left chair but chewing on the floatation seats??Seriously now, I think Shez said his end was done and it was waiting on Ian to finish things up.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!! You have no idea how "on the money" you are with THAT one! Jack is only now growing out of that phase after almost 4 years. It has driven Lori and I absolutely crazy -- we are literally on our second living room set in just that short a time!! Jack is quite the connoisseur of fine furnishings. :( :( :( And, if true, that is great news about Shez and Ian. And if it's as good as it looks to be, I''ll have no problem making a donation for their efforts, should they ask!! It would be the least I can do for their great contributions . . .!

Another KPHL home-towner here who is thrilled at this news. I just figured the project was dead too. This is great! Can't wait for the actual release... :( It's encouraging that there are still some brilliant scenery designers out there who haven't given up on FS9. I'm sure you've all seen the freeware EPWA and EPGD Polish airport sceneries that were released not long ago. Fantastic! This PHL looks like it will be right up there with the best.I have a question/comment in case Shez or Ian look at this thread. What I've found with every attempt I have ever made to install any kind of KPHL enhancement, and even with the default airport, is that there are frame-rate problems whenever looking toward the city skyline. I wonder if this is caused by the use of very old "legacy" textures from earlier FS versions? If so, can this be dealt with? I'd rather have the airport without the skyline and good frame rates than the other way round, as much as I love to see the Philadelphia Town Hall and Billy Penn up there in all his glory!

Looks great! the guys at sunskyjet had a few hard times over at the forum people getting ###### off for taken long with the project. and not releasing it etc etc. people forgot that they did this out of there spare time. glade its in final approach.

The fps are pretty good on my setup even with all AI and all sliders to the right. The Beta Testers have reported good results. The lowest fps are looking towards the entire terminal from terminal A towards the city but even these are in the upper 20's with all maxed out.Just give us some time to sort out the final tweaks. The Release Candidate version is with Beta Testers and is pretty much complete.Shez
