A launched Eurofighter will have a much heftier price tag than 7 million.

You really ought to let your kid ride Invertigo to be able to try it out for himself. What may be too intense for you might not be the same for your kid. If I didn't do anything my mother couldn't/wouldn't do (anything that is jerky or spins), I would have missed out on The Beast, Adventure Express, Invertigo, and Vortex. Let him get the lay of the land and boundaries can be more appropriately set.

I find it funny she doesn't want an intense invert yet asks for a "family friendly" giga or blitz.

There isn't a meal ticket for the Haunt meetup.

Good thing you can come at 9:30 and have ERT with the other Gold Pass members because there most likely won't be any perks to this event.

How else are you going to get around Firehawk? Flight of Fear blocks one way and the maintenance buildings block the other.

But buildings cannot be easily moved.

Perhaps the "dig deep enough" was a reference to the budget needed to buy them, set by the penny pinchers in charge at WDW.

How often is Diamondback's splashdown checked for pH and chlorine levels? The water shouldn't smell like vomit if the pH is kept around 7 and is properly chlorinated.

I know! It makes me so mad, especially when I bring the pair that don't have buttons at all! I've found, however, if you've put your phone in sideways the button will stop it from flying out.

Ah. Thank you.

Not really. Nothing's happening other than concrete being poured. It's my understanding the RCDB wizards don't put a park in that section until they see things going vertical.

I was repping eight measures for the umpteenth time, and I'll probably be doing that again tomorrow. Fun, no?

The Flight of Fear sign has always been correct without fail the time's I've seen it.

^The wheels underneath the track rails that keep the train from flying off the track when you go over hills.

*shrugs* I was close.

I guess my idea of fast is everyone else's slow!

Great photos. I especially like the first one of Diamondback. I'm a sucker for vanishing points.

Well then. Maybe my estimate is a little off, but don't you guys think it'd take a little more than 15 minutes to get from the station of Flight Deck to the steps of Mondo Monsoon? You have to factor in the pathway between Soak City, possible crowds, and everything in between. Maybe not. I was never good at estimating distances, anyways.

I would be shocked if it took me an hour. When my son got in line for Drop Tower once (which I don't ride), I took a quick walk to Rivertown LaRosa's and back and it only took me 15 minutes.Two things:1. Why didn't you go to the Festhaus LaRosa's? 2. How fast were you walking? It took me 15 minutes to get from the Festhaus to Rivertown Pizza.

An hour is my guess.

I don't think Beast's operate like that. It wouldn't make much sense to remove them in the spring/fall if they could "shut off" that easily.

The definition of "construction" means to build or the building of something. Land clearing isn't building anything.

I don't mind it slowing down, but I just wish it could be less aggressive. I have to brace myself every time it comes or else my head goes right into the headrest in front of me.

The ride opened with four sets of trims. One after the first drop, one after the first left turn, one in the "shed," and one after the second lift. The trims today are in the same locations as their predecessors.
