April 25, 20197 yr I am currently nearing the conclusion of a newly (reworked) Phoenix Sky Harbor for FS9 only. The new scenery will attempt add some new life to the dated versions available. Re-coloring, new textures, etc. and much better night lighting. If those within the group with experience would like to beta before release please let me know.

April 25, 20197 yr Great news, Mitch; KPHX is the closest thing to a home airport I have (since I never fly out of Tucson; it's less hassle to drive two hours up the road). I've been using the M1DG version, which is a pretty good depiction of the airport prior to the building of the passenger tram, but an updated version is certainly welcome. Be happy to help test if you need it. John G.
April 25, 20197 yr Great news! FS9 needs an updated KPHX. Intel i-9 13900KF @ 6.0 Ghz, MSI RTX 4090 Suprim Liquid X 24GB, MSI MAG CORELIQUID C360, MSI Z790 A-PRO WIFI, MSI MPG A1000G 1000W, G.SKILL 48Gb@76000 MHz DDR5, MSI SPATIUM M480 PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 2TB, Windows 11 Pro Ghost Spectre x64 “We sleep safe in our beds because rough men stand ready in the day and night to visit violence on those who would do us harm”.
April 25, 20197 yr Hi Mitch, I'd be glad to try the beta. I fly in and out of PHX often for work. Thanks, Jeff
April 26, 20197 yr Author Thank you and I will be in touch very soon. Airport is done but still trying to figure out where the stock Honeywell and adjacent buildings alongside runway 26 are stored. They look hideous. Mitch #NextUpSaltLakeCity
April 30, 20197 yr Author Beta completed. Uploading later today. On to Salt Lake. Mitch Edited April 30, 20197 yr by PebbleBeach
May 1, 20197 yr Mitch has done a great job with this update of KPHX, and I'd encourage everyone to give it a try once it's uploaded. John G.
May 1, 20197 yr I just downloaded and installed the new PHX and it looks great. The night textures are also very good! I made some quick adjustments on the Afcad. America West en Us Airways were still asigned to the gates so I changed them to American and American Eagle so they are now properly filled with the correct airlines. I also added some new airlines like Volaris so they also are parked at the gate instead on the parking lot in the west. It was a fast adjustment so I did not really looked at the proper gates assigments for the other airlines than American. Maybe I will do that later. The textures on the Honeywell building are not very good. They look blurry. But on the other hand: I checked GoogleEarth but there is no Honeywell building. And the Us Airways building at the east is also outdated. It has a blue stripe with “American” on it. Thanks for the scenery! I have a new destination!

May 1, 20197 yr Author Thank you. I could never figure out where the Honeywell bgl & bmp were stored or I would have fixed it. The US Airways building. I will fix. Do you have a pic of it by chance? Mitch

May 2, 20197 yr The update looks good, Mitch; the American logo is also around the same corner above the right-hand hangar door on the real building, but I don't think that's any big deal. The "Honeywell" building is also still there IRL, but it must be buried deep in the stock scenery. John G.
May 2, 20197 yr Author John, As I've indicated, unless someone directs me to where the Honeywell files are I cannot remove/update etc. etc. I will see if I can add the American logo to the hangar side. Thanks for the info. Mitch
