No Wing Coaster track at CSF. I just don’t see KI adding a wing when GateKeeper is only a few years old just up the road, and Thunderbird just down the other way. Definitely, you have 4 B&M wing coasters within a 360 mile radius of Kings Island. GateKeeper, Thunderbird, Wild Eagle, and X-Flight. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did this by referencing the footing schedule which gave me the diameter of the piers. What is called out there as 36"Ø shows up on the plan as exactly 1'-6", meaning the scale was off. This means that the lift length is approximately 335' by my measurements. At a 45° lift angle, that means that the height would be around that same number. If anyone is interested in how I came to that conclusion I can post an image. And no, I am not an "Engineer Wannabe". Please do. Also, so basically, the explanation for pic related being off is they "screwed up"? How could something like that slip by on something official like this? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those lift-hill supports look like a good match to those in the diagram to me. Even the turn-around is the same. I'm afraid we're looking at a 200 ft wing coaster. I hope I'm wrong. I've been wanting a giga for years. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcovelli Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Look at the way the track is positioned off to one side of the station, it's not a wing coaster. The 40' scale is wrong and I assume is the default on the template that no one changed. If this was the scale, the station would be about 30' x 11' feet.. which just doesn't work for any type of coaster. The 1"=20' is the correct scale. Someone needs to take a ruler or tape with them next time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magenta Lizard Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Ok, so I got excited and I ran the coordinates from LS1 and L8R, as given in the filed blueprints. They’re ~307 feet apart. That gives an approximate length (along the ground) of the lift hill to be around 300 feet. It won’t be starting at the ground, so if the lift is 45 degrees, it /will/ be a giga, but not a record breaking one: just a little over 300 feet. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIAParkman Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 It's not going to be a wing, it'll be a Giga and now with those blueprints of the lift hill, pretty much confirms that. Now just have to see how high and length/layout and all that. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fryoj Posted May 8, 2019 Author Share Posted May 8, 2019 I compared the actual footer diagram pics to Leviathan and Fury. It lines up with Leviathan, but is smaller than Fury. If it's a Giga, it's barely a giga. To be a record breaker for height it'll have to be a steeper lift than Fury. That being said. I don't have the PDF, so I cannot share it, but I have seen some screen shots. I understand why there's hesitation to post them. This place is going to melt down. The layout is very underwhelming. The clearing that is done now is all of it and it doesn't even use all that space. It's not twisty at all. Very straight, very few curves. A single helix. If its taller than Fury, it's going to have a hell of a time burning off the speed. I'm hoping it's an airtime monster. I believe the leaked doc to be legit. It is much more detailed than the MT layout leaked. It shows the buildings, coasters and topography around it. It matches the plans in the station area precisely. The only way this is not legit, is if it's an intentional red herring thrown out by the park. But if that's the case, I think it would still be up. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
