I know it's an aviator badge, doesn't mean my head (which is a scary, scary place) can't go off on wild tangents. Just wanting to spice it up a bit.It's an aviator badge. I would probably drop the idea of a flying car pretty quick, considering a lot of the posters so far had characters wearing old fashioned pilot clothing, with the googles, leather caps, wooly jackets and all.
A simple google search of 'aviator badge/logo' shows similar depictions. Whilst yes, the stylised crest could be similar to an early aged motor vehicle, considering the other components of the marketing we've seen I really would doubt that the rides theme would have anything to do with cars.
Just an opinion though. Would be very intrigued to be proven wrong.
Does the transition take place during the launch or before? Whether the train is traveling fast or slow, I'd imagine it'd be fine. Falcon's Fury (best comparison I can think of right now) has the high speed transition from flying to sitting, all with a quick deceleration rate, yet it felt seamless. I trust that they'll be able to get it right with this.My mind is still boggled as to how the transition from sitting to flying wont be offensive.
The dragon wings motif did make me think of this symbol which appears on both the Rookburgh and F.L.Y. teaser artworks but it is rather different in style (more Victorian looking) though.Feels quite different to the style of marketing images we've seen so far though?
Before. The train is going up the lift (vertical dark ride section possibly) then does a right turn, and at the same time it turns into the flying position. The train then heads into the first launch directly after.Does the transition take place during the launch or before? Whether the train is traveling fast or slow, I'd imagine it'd be fine.

Thanks for the update. Just to clarify, does this inversion resemble the one already existing over the tall building, or is it a different type of inversion?More track for F.L.Y. has been installed at the curve into the brake run, and the next piece sits under the supports already to be lifted up into place. The track here does twist over 180 degrees - so this will another inversion just before the brake run!
As I understand, all that can be deduced us that it's a twisted piece which is going to be lifted in placeThanks for the update. Just to clarify, does this inversion resemble the one already existing over the tall building, or is it a different type of inversion?
