Guest dtk1376 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 The car in the back left of that picture is same one that's on Off-Road Rally now. Doesn't mean it's same ride, but it's possible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark6495 Posted September 11, 2014 Share Posted September 11, 2014 I thought the same. I read that this ride lived at the new Coney Island from 06-07...... But maybe it is, I just was wondering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bs_78 Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 I was confused because I knew my daughter had rode them and really hated the drop landing more than me. I knew that the Flying Dutchman had not been at KI for years. I forgot they were moved to KK. A few years and a couple of kids things get blurry. Thanks guys! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I operated this ride and always had fun running out and stopping the scooters that were still wlldly swinging when the ride came to a complete stop. Wore out the bottoms of some shoes with my sliding stop approach ha! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarvestmanMan Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 I thought the same. I read that this ride lived at the new Coney Island from 06-07...... But maybe it is, I just was wondering There's a very similar ride that's been at Coney for quite a while. It was removed sometime in the past few years and the cars are (or were, as of a year and a half ago) now used as decoration around the park. One was around the side of the office building near the entrance to the restrooms. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsislandfan1972 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 So as we all heard before Kings Island may be getting a new flat ride for 2015, ca'nt wait for that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dtk1376 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 But let's not forget also that he is not 0% on his predictions, he was pretty much spot on about the new Slaughterhouse next to The Beast before the area even broke ground. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DegenRider Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I was there the last day 10 years ago. Even If they came back I don't know if it would be the same. It wasn't just the ride it was the people. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Interpreter Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Ten years. Wow. It's been ten years... Terp...who can't believe it's been 10 years. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skylab Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 I was also there on the last day. I remember the cake, the t-shirts, everything. Even now, I hang my head a bit when I walk past the Eagles' former spot.I went to Cedar Point for the first time this year. It was a cold and rainy morning in May. You know the very first ride I ran to? The Lake Erie Eagles. They weren't my flyers. They sat next to Gemini instead of Vortex. I couldn't move them as easily as I could ours. The moment I felt that satisfying snap, though, I felt like I was home.If this rumor turns out to be true, then I welcome this new ride. The world can always use more flyers... so long as they can snap. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skylab Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Screamscape is sometimes proven right. Take everything with a grain of salt, but the mere fact that it's on there gives me a bit of hope. Maybe they could go on the old Flight Commander platform. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
