Thunderbird has launched!
I agree. The 66 Days at Sea site looks too well themed for it to only be a hotel. I would like to see a new B&M.... possibly a wing coaster? Who Knows?

I think a Yogurt Plus would make a great addition to Kings Island's "treat line-up".

FUNTV First Impressions?
^ They could play Born to be Wild in The Beast queue; it would go well with The Beast's theming. ~Coasterama, though not an "older folk", knows classic hits when he hears them.

Can anyone see how far Banshee's line stretches today?

Just think of Goldilocks while waiting in line.

I can't give you a number, but it's almost certainly more than Beast's, however it's not quite to the point where it's "too much"; its what you would expect out of a massive B&M Invert.

I also recommend rows 7/8. The back seems a lot more forceful and "shoves" you over the first drop.

^It's fun enough to keep you entertained while waiting in line.

^ Surprisingly, my collarbone was not irritated at all yesterday, and I have a "bulgy" collarbone.

Does anyone currently at the park know how Banshee's line compares to Diamondback's?

Your Banshee Experience
Banshee is without a doubt the best inverted roller coaster in the world! I absolutely enjoyed every second of the 4,124 foot journey through 7 inversions. Let me just say, the in-line roll is a whole new experience for inverts! Again, amazing ride!

Next New Ride?
^ I wouldn't mind seeing something like Blue Fire, or the upcoming Helix. In my opinion, the park could use a big (key word is "big") launch coaster.

^ If you went back and said that 30 years ago, people would think you're nuts; however, as evident by the upcoming film, times change.

Banshee Construction Progress
^ If anything, it will make AE more thrilling. Your expecting a casual ride on a mine train coaster and all of a sudden.... BOO!... or in this case..... WAAAAAHHH!

You'll be able to hear that scream from Adventure Express. Just 4 (or 5) more days!

Banshee Construction Progress
To be honest I have no idea what the wall's purpose was. I was thinking it would have acted as a support for the exit stairs, or maybe it was just for added detail. I guess now we'll never know....

Banshee Construction Progress
^ I think this picture will answer your question: photo taken from Greg Scheid's Twitter page: https://twitter.com/KIGMGREG -Note that renderings released back in August of last year were not finalized (The Bat was still under its Flight Deck color scheme), so they might not even build it at all.
