He does this on his own at his own cost and at the cost of Fuel I'm sure its not cheap to go up.
see his website and the other links below of the flights he took almost monthly as weather permitted
without his updates last year we would have never knew the OVERALL progress AND LAYOUT.
Those updates from the tours mostly took place before Christmas and late last fall (correct me if I'm wrong).
View his site below for other parks and landmarks he also just added Hershey Park.

And yes we also can thank Wade and Diana and the PR dept. for some really fun times this year
OLE OLE!

Both were great.
We're SO lucky to have both. Most parks only have construction tours, this we have a chance to get a shot at the park in times like this to see what's going on.

Yes also with the Warm weather and not much rain/snow they should be ahead or on schedule which is always good

The El Toro sunshades were in place the last weekend of the 2006 season.
I suppose they didn't have time to install them until then.
And yes they were much needed.
The last photo in Phil's latest set was awesome...
And it also looks like they saved the Kangaroo from Koala Canyon.
Anyone see where it is?? You can see it in one of Phil's pictures.

Just because we got to be closer to El Toro when doing our tours does NOT decrease the quality of Phil's work. We were able to get park-sponsored tours every now and then to take pictures and follow the process, while he was able to fly over and get a complete overview of the progress (and here's the important part) at times we couldn't. I'm not sure if there's anything one could really find bad about his updates in that regard. You can't even call it inferior, seeing that aerial updates and tours are two completely different things. I just don't see what you're getting at here, unless it's just blindly insulting him for the sheer pleasure of it. I hope that's not the case because that is definitely frowned upon.

Thanks very much RJ, PCMAN and everyone else who enjoys my fly-overs. I realize it's a TEAM effort to bring updates and I'll continue to do my part
So far, I'm shooting for 12/27 (this coming Wednesday) for my next park fly-over....I'll keep you posted, though
I hope everyone has/had a
Merry Christmas

Thanks for taking the photos, Phil! My husband's father used to fly us over various parks a few years back, but he's had some health problems and hasn't been able to fly lately. It was a lot of fun and I miss it!

OMG !!11!!!11!11 and I thought they were just going to paint it again, what happened? Lol
edit. I just noticed two things that would be cool to own.
The Free Fall seats and the 12ft lion from the safari entrance sleeping on that trailer.

Peter...For all kinds of speculation and mayhem go read the Chiller thread at the Great Adventure Source.
That should keep you busy for quite some time..

Or, I'll save you the trouble LOL Its been "rumored" that a reprofiling would occur this off-season on the heartline roll.

Does anyone think they will replace the heartline roll with another heartline or will it be a straight away ? And will this mean less down time ? I wonder if it has to do with the valleying that happened this past season?Not enough power ?
