January 23, 200719 yr anyone seeing anything missing? No the leaves fall off in the winter it's normal.
January 23, 200719 yr Author ^Yeah.....the loop....that was confrimed by the newspapers and park....if your talking about the helix....gabriel saw it today.
January 23, 200719 yr anyone seeing anything missing? No I don't see anything missing, nore was anything missing when i drove by the park today. Everything is in its place.
January 23, 200719 yr anyone seeing anything missing? Lets see Leaves from the trees, hey you know there use to be more trees there. I remember the time when that was very heavily wooded. Wow I cant believe they were able to tear Great Wolf Lodge down that quick. Another tremendous post on your part. Thanks for adding to the forum.
January 23, 200719 yr YES!!!!!!! Thank you Nemo for these great pics of X-Flight. Or what we think is X-flight and we assume it is. You are my hero. Well now just to wait for the announcement.
January 23, 200719 yr Sweet. I'm sure the announcement will come Friday. It's no secret. Kings Island will have a new coaster in 07. Woohoo.
January 23, 200719 yr Rumor Smasher, what are we missing? Clearly, no loop, but we knew that was gone. What else?
January 23, 200719 yr edit: A little late on the joke But still, c'mon. They aren't going to be taking out two huge elements from the ride within a month's time. It's a fricken wooden coaster...taking out both helices would take longer than that,.
January 23, 200719 yr whens last time we had pictures from birds eye view.... When is the last time you rented a plane and a pilot and took pictures of your own? every thred you have something to whine about. Do something for yourself for once, and quite depending on mommy. I would go on, but you are not worth it. good bye. P.S. : you can see the top of the helix from the parking lot, just not from that angle. Man people start using your head and think before you post. You have more blond moments than any one on here!!! O.K. now I am done..........I think.
January 23, 200719 yr Heres a thought about the transportation of X-Flight Track. If you notice in the pictures the trucks are only able to carry 2 pieces of track per flatbed. How many pieces of track are there? Thats going to be a lot of trips from GL to KI to transport all that track. Also the trip is roughly 230 miles one way, making a round trip is 460 miles. With disel prices and the number of trucks required or the number of trips requires that aint going to be cheap moving X-Flight from GL to KI.
January 23, 200719 yr Well, I would have to think that this is going to be in this park for certain. Otherwise they would not be willing to present this track in the parking lot without tarps or any attempt to cover it up. I guess that this means the announcement mentioned on the CedarFair website is coming a lot sooner than I thought. MAYBE GOOD TO SEE THIS.....THANKS m.f.
January 23, 200719 yr Just a guess but I would say 1.40 a mile and they probably don't get paid to drive back empty. They probably get two trips a day. Now add it up and see if you would like to be a truck driver. The driver if he is Lucky gets .45 of that 1.40 a mile.
January 23, 200719 yr I have a source that says the announcement isn't going to be until Feb. 3. So now i'm confused as to when the announcment willl be for X-Flight.
January 23, 200719 yr Author ^Correct the announcement will be February 3rd. Tycoonrebel, you and I have the same source....see ya in april!
January 23, 200719 yr nothing new, but..... http://www.daytondailynews.com/ http://www.daytondailynews.com/hp/content/...2307pkiweb.html Notice the part of the story that talks about managers wearing "ties...."
January 23, 200719 yr Remember the tv report last Friday said the announcement would be made "next month."
January 23, 200719 yr ^Correct the announcement will be February 3rd. Tycoonrebel, you and I have the same source....see ya in april! Yup, Isn't it amazing that we have the same source. But does this mean the associates will find out about the ride before the GP or will the "OFFICIAL" public announcment still be on the 26th?
January 23, 200719 yr yup i have heard feb. 3rd! i got my thing in the mail the other day, this is great news!
January 24, 200719 yr Some of you guys are getting worked up about this announcement like it's some kind of huge surprise. "Hey look, we're building X-Flight. Oh and its new name wil be"...Nahhh, I'll hold you in suspense.
