corn4ahead Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 There's no way that FoF has only 6,761,893 "tests administered" since 1996. Doesn't that seem low for ridership? (Especially considering FH's 6+ million since 2007) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_capture_the_thrills_ Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Ok why does Firehawk have 7,762,893 tests administered and FOF has 7,761,893 tests administered? What are they trying to say here?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magenta Lizard Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Ridership: Flight of Fear has given 10,806,406 rides since 1996, the 20th-most in park history. Its record year was 1998, when 1,078,021 rides were given. (Numbers through 2009 season) source: KI Central of all places https://KICentral.com/rides/flight-of-fear/ (and I think they’re trying to say with those numbers “somebody done fouled up on the posters” so I wonder if this new one will end up in a version 2 today too) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone else have any knowledge on these pieces? Could we see a magnetic lift? I just don't see Cedar Fair being the Test dummy for that. But then again Hulk and Thunderbird didn't have major setbacks. Totally speculation, can we tell what kind of Lift from the blueprints? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KI FANATIC 37 Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 From these teasers, I'm kind of getting a science like type theme. I know they are there to throw people off, but that is definitely the general theme of these posters. I think that theme would fit will in X-Base. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohiocoasterfan Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Maybe with FoF they have finally mastered the launch sequence by reverse engineering the spacecraft. Now they have learned that the aliens originated from somewhere near Orion/Polaris. Our Giga is set to launch to the stars and investigate this alien life form. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, at least at first glance, the replacement poster has little if any cohesion or plot... I’ll be looking closer at it, but it makes it even more confusing to me that the first poster was switched for the second. Expand Yes I totally agree with you. The first poster that was quickly taken down had a lot more science related test regarding dizziness and vertigo. When they changed it, it had much less of this, and this new poster of FoF does not have a much (if any) of science related test. At first thought that leads me to think the theme of the coaster is in some regards related to science. Also, if we are thinking that they put up a coaster poster a day, we could be looking at an announcement around August 3rd.

Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 Sorry guys, I don't think we are looking at a launch here. The lift hill section of the blueprints basically shows the stuff needed for a chain lift. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
