Ohhhhh now I see it. Now I agree with you haha

[KingRCT3]

But I dont think you're crazy anymore.

Thanks, I guess?

 

And thanks TyRush as well. I agree tho, we'd have to get more evidences.

 

This ride really drives me crazy. I attempted a NoLimits recreation but miserably failed. Note that Google Earth has a view where you can see some of the fundations, giving a general shape to the ride. But not enought to make up the layout yet.

Yeah, I think you might be right. It's hard to determine as all the track and supports are the same color. Must get more evidence.

I am down there next weekend so will try and solve the corkscrew mystery.

[Guy T. Koepp]

^Thanky!

[DJeXeL]

So basically what we need to know is if it's screwing or not screwing....

[BDG]

More of the SFX coaster going up as well...

The Intamin can be seen in the background. The swooping curve belongs to the SFX coaster.

^Is the SFX coaster still scheduled to open this year, or is it next now?

[KingRCT3]

From what we can see (a straight track ), I believe the Intamin shuttle will have its main spike at the middle of the park (where the Huss Tower was), but the other spike will in fact be... a launch (the said slanted track), making it a Reverse Free Fall kind of ride.

 

... and ooooh, Intamin do have that in there catalogue (thanks Coaster-Lab for pointing that out):

 

 

But at Ferrari World, as the launch is slanted, I'd see the station to be at the bottom of the spike instead, right behind the big blue support in pic above. The ride would start by going at the end at moderate speed, reverse its direction and launches to the spike!

That's a very nice set of rides they're getting. That plus the fact that they have the world's fastest coaster should make the park a must visit.

[DoinItForTheFame]

WHY must people take pictures with an iPad? It is obnoxious. A phone will work just fine. Seriously... it is like taking a monster truck to the grocery store.

This was just posted to the Ferrari World Abu Dhabi Facebook page

The loop is nearly complete! Who's excited to ride ‪#‎FlyingAces‬?

 

 

[Nickstroberg]

Ooooooh sweet Jesus!

[rcjp]

Wow what's that?? Is it a non inverting loop?

[_koppen]

Oh my lord that is so gorgeous!

 

And Intamin claiming both the tallest inverting loop and the tallest non-inverting loop is brilliant!

[johnnyknottsville]

Wow what's that?? Is it a non inverting loop?

 

YES!!! and the tallest non inverting loop on the planet

Oh my god, this looks amazing. Wow.

[TyRush]

If this is a wing coaster that will provide some amazing whip over the top for wing seats. My guess is that this will be a 6 car wing coaster based on how compact it is

[coasterkid124]

Why can't Ferrari World be in the US???

 

It just keeps getting better and better. Like I said before, the world needs more Intamin Wing Riders.

[TB305]

The laterals on the winged seats on this are gonna be soooo awesome.

[ItsMe]

I am gonna be there in one month... Kinda painfull to see this structure just well.. standing there

[DoinItForTheFame]

Omg. The non-inverting loop looks amazing!! !

[Coaster Hero]

Oh my lord that is so gorgeous!

 

And Intamin claiming both the tallest inverting loop and the tallest non-inverting loop is brilliant!

 

Wait, how would it be the tallest inverting loop if it's a non-inverting loop? I think I'm missing something here

 

 

Anything, that thing looks massive. I love it so far, can't wait to see it completed! That transition is going to be insane if it has winged trains (which it increasingly seems like)
