  1. I bet FoF will have a line you haven't seen for along time.
  2. Yes it's hard to see what is coming next in the flying position. It's like riding Raptor and looking down at your feet the entire ride.
  3. I just got a call from PKI telling me our passes are now gold. It was a recording so I guess thats what everyone will hear. We bought maxx passes the day they started selling them.
  4. 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.
  5. When I was in line for X flight and Borg it seemed to move about the same speed as the Face/off line. Has anyone seen it opperate with 3 trains?
  6. X-Flight the capacity monster. Thats something you will not hear people say. You should put that in the whats the name thread. X-Flight the capacity monster
  7. They did the paint work before install on Borg.
  8. The problems they had are still there and are nothing that CF can change. If CF can put East Ohio back to work in high paying jobs they will be on their way back to their feet.
  9. No the leaves fall off in the winter it's normal.
  10. I think the whole park will be leaving. New for 08 will be closed and the rest of the rides removed.
  11. I don't like the ride but I am happy for the ones that do.
  12. It's a world class used ride now.
  13. It's almost like they are getting there news from PKI Central.com forums.
  14. I don't think there will be much changing in big attractions till they pay down some of that 2 billion.
  15. The way I understand it is that Blackstone is part owner of Orlando parks only. Every time I go to Universal I wonder if it will be the last time. When they have GE on CNBC they claim that they want to keep the parks but don't know what Blackstone is going to do.
  16. Last time I was on IJ it was getting cracks in the bodies and the doors needed some work. It seemed to be falling apart a little fast for it's age.
  17. erACER should be banned for posting such BS. You should have at least 100 post before posting things like that.
  18. I can understand wanting to hide Geauga Lake attendance.
  19. My bad encounter with X-Flight in 2002 has prevented anymore since. We can get in for free now and I still don't want to go. When I start out going there I aways turn and goto Kennywood.
  20. I don't think it's going to take ten years for the end my bet is on two years.
  21. When rumors are going they will tend to be about what is most costly or what everyone wants . When it's all said and done it ends up with what cost less. There are some here that could know and are saying no new trains at this point. As always no one hears it because it's not the most costly or what they want.
  22. I am no expert but if you put less people on it will weigh less. Adding a short seat belt will cut some weight too.
  23. 11.5 hour wait for it to open.
  24. I think what the state said about the structure and track was that it was to be modified to work with the weight that they was testing it at. The changes that they are doing with weight would be to get around having to do what it would take to make the state happy with the weight it was. I don't know but it's my guess.
  25. I think they took a look at what would cost less to do. They could have done a complete structural and track rebuild or just remove the loop and take weight out of the trains.
