It's actually a planning restriction in that area of the park, I've no idea why, but that's the only colour scheme allowed on coasters back there. Stupid, I know.
 
Re: Heide Park | Unknown | B&M Wing Coaster

I wonder, going back to why Nick approved this, he trusts his German research specialists more than in the UK because he himself doesn't know the audience as well? Just a theory, I don't really know how it works.

Nick isn't stupid, he must have specialist consultants who he listens to. But he's been in charge at Alton for at least 20 years. He knows that audience, he's sat and observed people fall disinterested in Nemesis but queue hours for Air and Rita. There is honestly no denying that most of his choices make perfect sense based on what he knows.

What boggles my mind though is why (in their eyes) Alton needs worlds firsts but no where else does. And why, at Chessington, they're content with copy-cat stuff?

So basically anything from Krake to Colossos needs to be white and green?

Lol...

No. I believe it's just that area at the back of the park. No idea why.
 
Re: Heide Park | Unknown | B&M Wing Coaster

I think he means anything situated between Krake and Colossos location wise.

Putting the ride together has started again.

Re: Heide Park | Unknown | B&M Wing Coaster

Everything is so tightly packed, which i think will add lots of near misses in itself.
 
Re: Heide Park | Unknown | B&M Wing Coaster

This is why Raptor worked at Gardaland as the track gave you near missiles.

I find compact coasters better tbh.
 
Re: Heide Park | Unknown | B&M Wing Coaster

I don't think it's that compact to be honest, there is the large empty space where the old log flum station is placed.

Most compact B&M ever? Errm .... Daemonen, Talon, Batman's are all far ahead!
 
Re: Heide Park | Unknown | B&M Wing Coaster

All of the diving drops have a downward slope to them.
 
Re: Heide Park | Unknown | B&M Wing Coaster

Does anybody know how many cars there are meant to be in each train? The way the drop is brings X-flight to mind, which has 8 cars to every train compared to other Merlin wing coasters which are 7.
