X-Flight Lift Hill Rises

Crews are working diligently at Six Flags Great America to make sure X-Flight opens on time, and it looks like they’re right on schedule. If you check out the webcam available at the park’s website, you can follow the construction day-by-day. It looks like the entire 120-foot-tall lift hill was put into place yesterday:

Perhaps a re-positioning of the the webcam, or even the addition of another webcam, is in order so we can continue to watch this massive coaster take shape.

Meanwhile, “RobSFGAm” at SFGAm World posted some great photos of workers topping off the X-Flight lifthill:

X-Flight is expected to open in mid-May of this year.
