All The "kinks" for the Windseeker fleet have been fixed in 2013, I did not hear of any break downs that lasted for hours in 2013, Does anyone know when "Steelhawk" is planned to open? -
Everyone's so fast to say "get rid of windseeker" but do you really think there going to put anything better in her spot knowing how the GM is and how the park has turned more towards families, it would be a small flat ride or food again sorry but I don't get to travel much so KBF windseeker is all I got!

Heres something to keep in mind. Im sure not every guest will be easy to get off of there seat. Me I would hop right onto that cage Im a theme park Fan so thats fun to me lol. But that info is from the operators them self im sure if they did it enough times they would be used it and it should take no time at all. But sense its new and im sure they are hoping to not use it that much, It will take time for them to get it right. But im thinking the GP will be a little ify trying to get off a ride at 300 feet high onto a cage! But hey at lest they came up with a way to get your ass off lol.

I have a little info on the Windseeker evac system. It's Broken down to two pieces. They think they can store them buy Montie. When they need to use it it will take them about 30 mins to hook up. The evac system is lifted by a separate lift system with separate cables. They will rise it up take two guest off lower slightly rotate slightly and rise up and remove two more guest then take them back down and repeat the prossess. If the ride is fully occupied it can take up to five hours. This is also a last resort system only if they really can't get the ride back down. As far as I know they have been working on the regular lift motor but no word on if they fixed the issue of not being able to get it back down. Also the windseeker could be opening this week or by the weekend.
