I rode FoF a couple weeks ago and I have to say that I like the new lighting. Cool colored blacklighting.

Fateful day in the park
Then why didn't they use pumps on the small lake by The Beast? Was the lake too much of an annoyance?

New PKI Job
I, myself am planning on trying for rides. But if that doesn't work, I'll try for sound tech at one of the shows.

Final Showdown!
It's sad to say that I never got to ride the great Phantom Theater. But I think SCATHC is a good ride. Though, I loved the Space Ranger Spin at WDW also.

Golden Ticket Visits
Most Beautiful Waterpark: 1. Schlitterbahn 2. Typhoon Lagoon 3. Blizzard Beach I haven't been to Schlitterbahn, but I have been to both the Lagoon and Beach. Both of them were fantastic. Well themed, nice atmosphere. Best Non-Coaster Ride 1. Spider Man 3. Tower of Terror Haven't rode Spidey (sad isn't it?) But i have rode ToT. Back when I rode it in 2000, it was pretty cool since they had the new programming with one huge drop, a couple small, then one last huge. I heard they redid the lap bars with just seat belts and totally redid the programming with a random program, new ride everytime. All I can say is ToT gets my vote this time.

Could Top Gun be retro-fitted?
Vekoma also makes floorless suspended cars. They can be "retro-fitted" on Arrow track also. But Top Gun is one of few remaining "full bodied" suspended coasters. If they replaced the trains, it'd take away it's uniqueness.

Wonderland FIRST FLYING COASTER
Oh, great. A Zamperla Volare...

Fateful day in the park
Nobody was killed on The Bat. The problem with it was that the turns weren't banked as they are now on Top Gun and all other Arrow suspended coasters. This led to the extreme wear and tear on the shocks as they would let the cars swing out very far as they rounded the turns. It was closed because it was plagued with problems. This site can explain it all: The Bat

What do you miss most from PKI's past?
Actually, let me correct both of us. You meant to say 'bye', right? In that case it's 'au revoir'. Khomalro and Khamsahnidah.

Drop Zone Height
This has nothing to do with Drop Zone, but it's a floorless, tilting version of the gyro drop... Is it just me or does this look painful??

Aqua Trax
Intamin Aqua Trax / Waverunner - Riders sit astride on saddle-like seats as seen on jet skis, rather than 'inside' a boat. These jet ski cars travel through water sections designed to simulate the skimming and jumping of real jet skis. Basically, You ride like a jetski. Almost like a water coaster, 'cept you're riding saddle-style. (Lotte World is getting one, so you can check out the construction pics on RCDB.com)
