cfc Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 I can't work out the "first plane themed roller coaster" claim. Seems to me that there have been a few of those in the past--for example, Bobbejaanland's Air Race (which is now Dream Catcher). Let's not forget the Barnstormer at the Magic Kingdom in Florida.
dubaidave Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 Love it. Keep them coming. I am supposed to go down and meet the marketing people in a couple of weeks. So will represent everyone's concerns in person!
VegasBaby Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 Still can't work out the steepest incline thing. Agreed, that claim just doesn't make any sense. There are a lot of coasters with 90 degree lift hills (Fahrenheit, Rip Ride Rockit, Eurofighters, etc), so a 51 degree incline is hardly a record. That said, Flying Aces looks amazing and I'd love to be able to ride it someday.

rcjp Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 ^It's a very silly "record" nonetheless. Anyway, the ride is looking amazing. I hope I get a chance to visit the park somewhere in the future, especially with all these new additions.
Gutterflower Posted January 11, 2016 Posted January 11, 2016 Intamin also literally just built a taller non inverting loop at wanda hefei too. So its not the only aeroplane themed coaster. The steepest lift or the tallest loop. Although it is if you add the words... in the United Arab Emirates after it
Paradox Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 I don't get the whole "first plane themed coaster" claim. Plane themed rides have been around for a long time, the last one being Junker.
dubaidave Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 I understand that a POV has been filmed and they're currently editing some footage together. As soon as they release it I will be sure to post it on here
rosscoe Posted January 12, 2016 Posted January 12, 2016 I have a trip to Abu Dhabi this Thursday than the following Saturday hoping that it opens sometime in the next two weeks!
rosscoe Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 Got an email back from the Park ,I asked if flying aces would be open this weekend and was told no plans to open the ride at this stage
boldikus Posted January 21, 2016 Posted January 21, 2016 I understand that a POV has been filmed and they're currently editing some footage together. As soon as they release it I will be sure to post it on here
coaster-mm Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Yes, finally! Will be there the 2nd week of May to ride this thing......
RyanTPM Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Looking forward to seeing it open and hopefully seeing a POV soon!
gerstlaueringvar Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 Great! I'm so jealous of all my friends going back to Dubai during spring break!
dubaidave Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 I can guarantee I will take plenty of pics and video.
boldikus Posted January 27, 2016 Posted January 27, 2016 I can guarantee I will take plenty of pics and video.
theredskull84 Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 I can guarantee I will take plenty of pics and video. Amazing.
KBrylczyk Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Holy crap. $776 round trip Vegas to Dubai. So tempting...
DJeXeL Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 That's a screamin' deal!! You riding in the cargo hold??
