[Naemuti]

This doesn't look particularly life-changing. I'm not gonna make a special trip for it.

^ That song... was awful.

To anybody who was there, can you put Wild Eagle in on your Q bot? It's one of two parks we're considering for our vacation this summer, and that'll play a huge role. Also, was it down at all?

EDIT: And if they play that horrible song in the queue, we're just going to Busch Gardens Williamsburg instead...

I just want to read an honest review of the coaster rather than one that just says what the park wants to read.

Wild Eagle won't be on the Q-bot this year. Expect 2+ hour wait times. It wasn't down at all in spite of the 20-30 minute rain storms that popped up throughout the day. The song doesn't constantly play in the queue, but it does from time to time.

I've been sick for the past two days, but I'll post my full report after I get a few hours sleep.

Wow! Best wingrider yet???

Unlike Raptor, Swarm and perhaps X-Flight, I feel that this coaster really integrates into the "Dollywood theme" rather spectacularly, especially with the Eagle sculpture.

The ride itself? Can't say it looks any better than the previous wingriders (even Baco), however it certainly uses the terrain to great effect, with a few large inversions. If anything a bit short...

But still....awesome! :--D

In my opinion this is the best Wing Coaster.
Surprisingly very fast.
