^ Yes because inversions always make a coaster better... :roll:
You totally missed my point there. I meant that all of the other wing coasters have at least four-five inversions, this is actually quite low. The Wing Coasters before it have sort of set the standard, which is why I say this is great for something with that "low" count of inversions, when some might think the ride is just full of filler between inversions, which it doesn't really look like it is.

^I find that picture a bit too dark to tell what's going on. However an indoor section on a B&M winged coaster sounds fantastic.

It will be called "Flying Over The Rainforest" and most of it is already built.

I heard that it will be a B&M wing coaster with green track.

1 page back, we found out it was being called that and we do have eyes - we can see it's almost built.

He obviously hasn't read the topic. Thanks to 'HZGarfield' and others for keeping this thread updated by the way :)

When can we see testing?
After the whole area is completely refurbished?

When all near misses are placed they can begin testing. Rest of the refurbish they can work around. I think...not too sure but we should see testing soon.

Looks like this thing is going to tie the record with GateKeeper for speed. These things have blown up fast.

^Are you just saying that, or do you know that for a fact?

I think he's just saying it, but to be honest he's probably right. I'm pretty sure they're roughly the same height so it'll be a close one!

I suspect this may be faster, because there's only a 2m difference in the height and Gatekeeper drop will start off slower, as it rolls before. This drop just goes straight down.

Gatekeeper will be faster, the roll means the train will be almost entirely lifted to the top where as on this ride the drop comes straight after the lift meaning that only part of the train is lifted to the top at any one time.

^Yes, but it's not going to be going very fast through the roll, whethers this, once disengaged will drop immediately.
