 Review of Flight of Fear @ Kings Dominion
0 Rating Posted by: beastboy on 5/22/2004 1:47:00 AM
I didnt get to ride this with the shoulder harnesses (thank god) but I imagine just like the PKI version, the headbanging was ridiculous and took away from the actual experience of the coaster. However, with the simple lapbars, this ride became fabulous as you can now spread your wings and indulge yourself in the giant inversions, pretty good themeing, and intense launch (all without the headbanging). If anyone wants to know the layout of the ride, find pictures of Poltergeist (Six Flags Fiesta Texas) or Jokers Jinx (Six Flags America).

Is it really the same layout as Poltergeist and Jokers Jinx? I know the length is the same and the elements are the same however. the ride time is so much different at just over a minute for Poltergeist and JJ while FofF is close to 3 minutes.

yep, theyre pretty much identical.

any idea why FofF takes almost 3 minutes to finish the same circuit that Poltegeist finishes in 1:15. Id like to know if anyone knows

that is kinda weird. maybe one is launched faster. and r u sure FoF is 3 minutes long? that seems awfully long for that ride.

For the timing Im going based on the info at rcdb. FofF seemed like a fairly long ride last week, but I didnt actually time it so Im relying on rcdb.

FoF has a midcourse break.

true, true. i once saw a POV of Jokers Jinx and it appears as though it has a straight piece of track where FoF has one, it just wasnt using it.

Yeah, Jokers Jinx has a spot for one just no brakes and instead weird circular things.
