I still can't quite believe this is happening...
I physically laughed my ass off at that first POV animation... And now look.

Dunno, but I do know one thing… It’ll look slow if it does!But will it open
Absolutely!Dunno, but I do know one thing… It’ll look slow if it does!
I will be the first to comment on its lack of speed, as long I am fast enough ;-)Dunno, but I do know one thing… It’ll look slow if it does!
My impression was that it was possibly just a plinth for the foundations/footers, similar to the flat-spots in the hillside underneath the uphill section. It's hard to tell from that picture - the angle and resolution is a bit tricky to interpret.Are we assuming that square in the cliff face is the tunnel?
controvesal opinion: IrRat (tilt) has the better layout than falcons flight....lets face it once falcon gets past the 600ft mark, its just a big fast s o u p e d senic railway. which isn't bad pre say. however IrRat has much more of a layout than falconView attachment 30787
Looking at this (frankly insane) shot. Are we assuming that square in the cliff face is the tunnel?
In a slight aside. I assume that angled LSM track on the right would hold the dubious record of longest launch track in the world?
But what do you want? Just a 5 second experience or a boring layout, which you want it to end rather sooner than later?Falcons flight is way more than just taking the records. TTD and Kingda Ka were about taking the records. Tall, fast, but 5 seconds experiences. The ride actually has a concept beyond just being a one trick pony.
I really liked Formula Rossa after hearing so many negative things about the layout. The second half of the coaster was much more fun than I expected.But what do you want? Just a 5 second experience or a boring layout, which you want it to end rather sooner than later?
Because of the high speed, it is impossible to make a interesting and long layout. Just have a look at Formula Rossa, which isn't great either.
