Guest rollercoasterfreak Posted February 16, 2007 Posted February 16, 2007 have you all seen the flight commander video. How fun would that be. Who thinks that they should bring that ride back.and make it more fun and safer? Quote
The Interpreter Posted February 16, 2007 Posted February 16, 2007 Uh,,,,with all due respect, I'd love to say I really miss that ride. I don't. It was not all that thrilling. Go to INSERT NAME OF A LOCAL AMUSEMENT PARK SOUTH OF Kings Island HERE this summer and ride the Rock-O-Planes. Now THAT is fun.... Quote
KIfan73 Posted February 16, 2007 Posted February 16, 2007 Uh, I think that would be right up there with naming a new cruise ship The Titanic. Quote
Guest rollercoasterfreak Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 Uh, I think that would be right up there with naming a new cruise ship The Titanic. thanks that really bosted up my confidence to get this ride back? Quote
The Interpreter Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 There is essentially no chance that any US park will ever install a Flight Commander ride again. . . Quote
Browntggrr Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 FC was a unique flat ride, but really not too thrilling. It did have one horrible night due to a combination of too much alcohol and questionable restraints (more towards the alcohol end). It was probably also a maintenance nightmare. Quote
WooferBearATL Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 And was essentially pretty boring. Would rather see the Wooden Shoes Back. Quote
The Interpreter Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 Those shoes live quite happily at Kentucky Kingdom, last I checked: FLYING DUTCHMAN Walk on air in these shoes as you sail around in circles (Under 42" w/adult No lap children). http://www.sixflags.com/parks/kentuckyking...Rides/list.html And yes, they are the SAME ones...

Purplehaze Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 Or the Bavarian Bob Sled(spelling and name?) Quote
WooferBearATL Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 WOW what are the odds that it kept the same name? Quote
WooferBearATL Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 Or the Bavarian Bob Sled(spelling and name?) Bayern Curve. Quote
Steveo3631 Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 Tumble Bug was more fun than Flight Commander. Heck, so was Flying Eagles! Quote
WooferBearATL Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 TumbleBug was an incredible ride. That was a great loss to the park. Quote
Cory Butcher Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 Whatever you guys do dont diss the Flying Dutchman and Tell Bill, Im pretty sure that ride has a great significance to him! Quote
Hank Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 Flight Comm. was too slow and it got boring after the 2nd time around. Quote
