August 13, 201016 yr Today I read on facebook that a girl saw that Flight of Fear now has the light flicker in the station. It seems lately that a lot of theme is coming back to our park. 1. Adventure Express-water drip 2.Planet Snoopy-Flags and Signs 3.Backlot Stunt Coaster-Water 4.Starlight Spectacular 5. Flight Deck-New Announcements 6. Flight of Fear-Light Flicker and Ride Photos. Can anyone think of anything else?
August 13, 201016 yr Well, the Crypt is pretty dark and musty, as a real burial tomb might be... It's also pretty lifeless, but that's a topic for later. I do see what you mean, though. I just wish some theme would come back where it matters - the glockenspiel, appropriate music, trees... Good points, though! I hope it's a conscious trend that continues and not just a few coincidental mid-season actions.
August 13, 201016 yr I think those are basic fixes that you mentioned. From what I understand KI(CF) is not interested in making a theme park, they prefer to keep traveling towards a amusement park. I am sure there are a lot of fixes around the park most just go unnoticed
August 13, 201016 yr Author Yes the Crypt has improved since April. The scary music plays really loud out front.
August 13, 201016 yr ^ Though admittedly, it's a little strange that the Backlot Stunt Coaster's pool and filtration system were restored at this random time in the season. As was pointed out (contrary to what I'd immediately believed) it is not just rain water. Someone purposefully filled it up, and turned on the filter system. If anyone has a hot tub, you know it takes a few hours to fill it up with a garden hose. Imagine filling that pool up... It certainly wasn't done on a whim.

I'm sorry, It's been a while since I've been to KI (like mid' July?), tell me about this new Flight Deck announcement, and FoF's flight flicker, and Adventure Express's water drip.

Adventure Express' last tunnel now has the guy turned on at the top of the tunnel. He has a pot that tips over that looks like lava. Flight Deck and FoF are things I have heard, but the Flight Decks Announcements were confirmed.
August 13, 201016 yr Whata re the new Anouncements, and Tiki-Man doesnt drip water? No, he doesn't. He's holding a pallet of "lava" that he tips as the train approaches. In the "old days," a sufficiently large cloud of fog collected on the bowl, and when he tipped it, the fog "spilled" onto the train, lit by various red lights in the bowl. The fog has not returned, but the lights inside the bowl are back, so it has the illusion of lava as he tips it towards you.
August 13, 201016 yr I said that he didn't drip water, thats what I thought, that he was saying. I knew it tipped an all of that. Now for the first part, what are the new anouncments for FD?
August 13, 201016 yr Does the Flight deck new announcements have anything to do with some of the supports being painted. I went and rode it yesterday, and I swear some of the supports had new paint. Am I wrong on this?
August 13, 201016 yr What are Flightdeck's new announcements? I was there Monday and Tuesday and didn't hear anything...
August 13, 201016 yr I work at KI and dont know what the new announcements are.....and have a few friends that work on FD...Id like to know as well so I will stop being the last to find everything out lol
August 13, 201016 yr Unless it's a prerecorded announcement, which I doubt, they've made subtle references to Top Gun for a while...
August 13, 201016 yr ah ok...and no i doubt its a recording...we get in trouble if we arnt using the mics that KI gives us to speil with
August 14, 201016 yr ah ok...and no i doubt its a recording...we get in trouble if we arnt using the mics that KI gives us to speil with FoF uses a prerecorded autospiel, why couldn't Flight Deck?
August 14, 201016 yr When did Backlot fill it's pool back up? I would love to see an image of this. *in the style of an elderly 80's italian sitcom star* "Picture it... Mason, 2005... A warm sunny day mid july as a young peasant girl walks over the bridge to the former Italian Job Stunt Coaster and looks down to see a concrete basin, with water 10 inches high " Does that help any? I have to assume you've seen the water in the 'splash' before, I can't imagine it looks any different. Unless that was a diminutive way of working in the always trendy, and usually annoying - oldie but goodie... "proof?" replies ... (as a side bar - it has a been a great long while since I have seen the onslaught of the 'proof' replies here... granted I've not spent a whole ton of time on KICentral this summer but I did notice the lack of those type comments in topics with speculation regarding SoB or 2011... a step in the right, welcoming direction no? ) :-D
August 15, 201016 yr Wow, well its going to take a lot more than that to impress me with theming increases. Someone call me when they restore the lower level of flight deck...
August 15, 201016 yr I myself would like to see the ET a different color, yes it is original but make it bright and snazzy
August 15, 201016 yr It isn't original. Originally, the tower was more of an olive drab green...not the blue green now seen...
