Superman - ULTIMATE FLIGHT
Submitted By: bb_dg on 1/23/2002 9:52:00 AM
The official announcement was made today about Six Flags Over Georgias new B&M flying coaster which will feature close-calls with the ground and a brand new pretzel loop. It is sure to be a great, action-packed ride!!! The signature feature of SUPERMAN - ULTIMATE FLIGHT comes as riders sail through the first-ever, 78-foot, pretzel-shaped inverted loop, climbing to the top of the large looping figure and diving into a curve which brings them amazingly close to the ground, amplifying the sensational feelings of flying.

Rounding out the flight is a surprising 360 degree in-line roll just before the train enters the station, turning average thrill-seekers into high-flying super heroes. "SUPERMAN- ULTIMATE FLIGHTS innovative design system and state-of-the-art technology make it a must ride for every theme park enthusiast," added Odum.

Teh pretzel-shaped loop looks like it will pack a punch. I'l have to plane a tripe to SGOG to ride it.

It can't possibly be a disappointing as the Vekoma Flying coasters are. I guess that's a plus.

Ok It will b cool but this is confusing me....... B&M designed this ride right? And On the one thing that is Additional Link you see a pic/drawing but it looks exactly like the Vekoma versions. I then went and looked at a pic of Air and it has the standard looking B&M track. It seems like that website screwed up but the color is different then any other flying coaster. I might be making to big a deal of this but it is confusing me.

It's too bad this coaster is at SFoG.

I live in Atlanta, SFOG is awesome! It's just that nobody gives it a chance to show what its got!

thats because places like NY and cali are better (Gadv and MM)

My most recent visit to SFOG was last fall. I have been visiting for over 20 years. It really needs some help.
