Okay, I know this post is 8 pages in, but I feel it is worth it.......I think. I work at MM and was just talking with a mechanic last night about the new coaster, it's a B&M Flyer, and Orient is most likely NOT going to die because of it.......maybe close down while they're building the new one, but he didn't think any ride would get the axe. The details I can pass along are a bit sketchy because I don't really remember much (busy night), but the guy said it was going to be BIG, even though the design isn't set in stone. He even offered to let me see them if I stopped by the shop sometime next week, bringing a camera along would prob. be frowned upon.... Oh yeah, and he said they could start breaking ground in as little as a MONTH! :shock: As for when it'd open, I know they wouldn't shoot for Christmas, but doubt they'd lag enough to make Spring '06 opening time.

Heh, I've been stuck on Deja for a little bit, but it was on the second hill.......still kinda scary when it cut us loose 20 seconds later completely without warning! FYI, I work at Magic.......you'd think I'd have learned after 3 years though.
