PKIVortex Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Did you guys read the latest PKI e-mail news letter. Check this out! As the 2005 season quickly approaches, crews are working hard to put the final touches on the park as well as the many new additions. In coming weeks, popular attractions like Top Gun, Face/Off, and the Eiffel Tower will experience a Hollywood makeover and the new multi-million dollar fast track coaster experience, the ITALIAN JOB: Stunt Track will also race towards completion. Four new dining options have also been added to PKI lineup. These exciting new additions include a new Chic-Fil-A, located in our kid's area, serving a variety of chicken sandwiches and crispy waffle fries. Graeter's Ice Cream settles in its newest location on International Street serving a variety of flavors of premium hand-dipped ice cream, adding yet another Queen City favorite to the park. Also, the all new Happy Days Diner will give a cool spot to hang with your gang and enjoy a unique dining experience complete with entertainment surrounded by memorabilia and characters from the classic television series Read the bolded text. Is Top Gun also getting a paint job this year? Or could they be re-opening the themed que. What do you all think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vortex Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Top Gun might be getting a paint job that it needed. Also they might be repairing some parts of effects and things in that long line for the coaster. As for the lower que the last two years I saw empolyes taking parts off and taking them home on the last day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 ^ If they did that they would ruin the ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKIFan4Life Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 I hope they re-open the queue. However, I believe that would be an added position to the ride costing the park more money. We shall soon see. I can't see Top Gun getting a paintjob, it's still pretty fresh from 2000 from what I can remember. Also, did anyone catch that they said FOUR new food locations and listed 3. Happy Days, Chic-Fil-A, Graeters, and _____ I dunno. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reclaimer Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 Jeff said they're working on getting Starbucks in the park. The deal may be going through Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KIBeast Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 "As for the lower que the last two years I saw empolyes taking parts off and taking them home on the last day." They will probably sell that stuff on ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pkifreak Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 I hope they do something about the line, I would love for them to re-open the inner que, I loved looking at all that stuff in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moore Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 I signed up for the newsletter but haven't gotten that yet....can you tell me where I can go to re-sign up. If they do give Top Gun a paint job, then they won't be replacing it with the inverted version anytime soon. Does anyone know what they would do to Face/Off? I hope a new paint job b/c I hate the red/yellow scheme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hauntguy Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 I can see it now: Pilot training vids, "Pilots" in the que, the effects working (beacon lights, fog, maybe some strobes), and a real "ship announcer" like "Fighters Alpha, Delta, and O'Riley now entering the DANGER ZONE!!!" That would be cool! -Hauntguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thejoker8388 Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 Does anyone know what they would do to Face/Off? I hope a new paint job b/c I hate the red/yellow scheme. Yep it got a paint job, but its still the same colors. Personally I like the colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKI_Diana Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 (edited)  Also, did anyone catch that they said FOUR new food locations and listed 3. Happy Days, Chic-Fil-A, Graeters, and _____ I dunno.

CoastersNSich Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 I heard it was going to be Mexican going into the Chinese place. I actually like Mexican better... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 It will be a Chipotle-style restaurant. We are still currently working on what will be on the menu though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UCcatguy52 Posted March 30, 2005 Share Posted March 30, 2005 Nice more food selections in the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PKIWorker19 Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Not sure if this has been answered already or not, but the Starbucks deal went through and we are in the process of constuction on Bakery. Right now, its just kinda a hole in the wall. The other new thing is Pablo Charlie's. That is the new Mexican place which is taking over Mandarin. That will most likely not open for a few weeks, same with starbucks. Can't be for sure though. Oh, and Chick-fil-A will HOPEFULLY be opening April 16th or somewhere around there. HOPEFULLY.
