westcoaster Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Should be so blessed to have these additions: To a great Park already and a Park that beats out in the Universe the best Kids Park, that in many ways is beyond awesome. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JubJester Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Just saw this on Kings Island Facebook page, the Woodstock Gliders have arrived! I can't wait until they begin to set it up so I can watch on the webcams. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delirium13 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Here it is for those without Facebook: "The planes for the new Woodstock Gliders ride opening in the spring of 2015 have been delivered. A classic flying scooters ride from Larson International, Woodstock Gliders will be located in the 14-time, award-winning Planet Snoopy area of the park."

jsus Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Hmm, it looks like Cedar Fair likes to do the decals on these rides themselves. It's awesome that they have these capabilities in-house. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBEASTunchained Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 It looks as if the item sitting behind the "planes" is indeed the ride's "tower" section. I'm guessing that they haven't been delivered yet, as they are not pictured, but the arms of the ride, should have also been in the bundle. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magenta Lizard Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 That color scheme makes me think of Kraft Mac and Cheese. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freaks76 Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 That color scheme makes me think of Kraft Mac and Cheese. No way! Them's shells and cheese colors. Just because shells and cheese is better. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silver2005 Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I'm guessing that silver pole-like piece of steel is a central support for the ride? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldschool75 Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 Just wondering what other things may be happening in the back of the park that were not announced? Perfect time to slip something in/make changes, while all the webcams are facing everywhere but the back. lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Interpreter Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Were they to replace all of them, is there enough capex even available? Terp, who loves perhaps misleading questions and, sometimes, missing punx. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TombRaiderFTW Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 ^ That's what it looks like to me. I think the picture is taken in the former 80's store, looking towards Thrill Seekers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBEASTunchained Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Kings Island on Facebook : "The construction of Woodstock Gliders, a classic flying scooters ride from Larson International, is underway in Planet Snoopy. The ride features eight two-person planes that glide 28 feet above the ground. Each plane has a stationary rear wing and a movable front wing which allows the rider to control the flight and alter their ride experience from mild to wild. Be among the first to experience Woodstock Gliders when the park opens for the 2015 season April 18."

MarkB. Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I was talking to a guy at work the other day (another season pass holder with kids) about the petting zoo. I as a 42 year old big kid enjoyed it in Oct. for Haunt (as well as the trick or treating) But here is my concern---How bad will it smell in the summer with 90 degree heat and most of the park downwind of it? Thoughts? Later, Mark 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTD-120-420 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 About the same as any other petting zoo in the summer? This isn't a new thing. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrill_Biscuit Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 As a long-time employee of a major U.S. food company, as well as a huge, life-long fan of Kings Island (my fandom is huge, not me) I'd have to say that the picture of the Flyers, with the Flying Ace Aerial Chase in the background, would make an awesome background for a commercial. I'm just sayin'! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
