hi all, long time reader and follower, first time poster. based in the UK i see it as this. AT got sooo much stick after thirteen, by giving it a SW6 tag and turning out what is a individual good family coaster which the park needed, it didnt suit the enthuasists but i fell it was what the park needed to add to attract the wider audience AT has always been limited (mostly legally) with what it can do, we know it can spend 10-20m on a project and unlike some of the borefest coasters which sit in massive open expanses around the world, they often put a good level of theming and landscaping into there coasters and this shows with some of there current crop also because of these limitations they put in a lot of worlds first's, or as we all know are manufacturers prototypes. (air, oblivion, thirteen) this allows them to deliver something grounbraking but on a small scale compared to the giant american coasters. once these prototypes are done then most us and world parks get the bigger and better versions off the back of what AT do. personally i hope its a eurofighter and this is because they have a bad rep for samey layouts, broing layouts, short layouts e.t.c this time we see AT taking what we would regard as a not so popular coaster and then building on it, getting a 1 off layout, most likely getting a worlds first off the back of it to keep there profile up, with a massive bill and hopefully more good theming. its nice to see the park on the latter end of a product evolution cycle rather than at the beginning in most costers AT have built also i dont think the 2nd lift hiss (vertical) will be launched. i think its just a big block section due to the lengh of the ride and to factor in whatever is going on in the rather large station building. my opinion sorry for spelling, im dyslexic and also in a hurry at work so i dont get busted. PS, hi all!
