Sorry Pablo, that was slightly harsh, but I'm not the worst grammar fairy on here by any means! Lol.
Anyway back on topic....Thorpe have a new ride. Will it spin? Won't it spin? Will it actually make Thorpe a nice place?

Thrope is already a nice place. It's awesome with what it's got. It's cool that they are getting another coaster. But I think it has enough already.
Alton is already a nice place. But it doesn't need another first of its kind coaster. It's has plenty of rides to keep people satisfied.
Hiede needs expansion and needs those old **** coasters thrown out and replaced with new high quality coasters. I am tired of seeing Corkscrews and SLCs at every single park. They hurt on-ride and are an eye sore when you see them. And this park is owned by Merlin! They should know that Hiede isn't equally as awesome as Thrope or Alton.
Here is what they should do if they want it to be awesome as the others:
Put in a Intamin Suspended Coaster to replace Limit and put in a Euro-Fighter or a B&M Sitting Coaster to replace Big Loop. Then you got Krake in there too with new coasters and with those ****ty vekoma rides out the door and you got another awesome Merlin park like the others.
"Hey lets go to this park!!"
"Yaaay!!"
"Oh they have..........a Corkscrew and an SLC............I've sure have never seen that before"

Right, locking this as it's out of control.
I'll reopen it when:
a) Somebody has collated actual information about the ride, so we can put together a summary. PM it to me please.
b) a couple of days of that being the last post on here for people to read it an digest.
c) something new happens that is worth discussing.
38 pages and they only got permission granted in the last week :roll:

Re: LC12 - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012
Okay, all 38 pages (500 posts) can be condensed into this. READ THIS, asking questions answered here will make me very cross!

Tim's PERSONAL concept art - NOT OFFICIAL!!!
Tim said:I reckon that sorta stuff stays secret, so we have to fill in the gaps ourselves =)
Lift Hill over jacknifed lorry (food outlet)
Half roll-dive loop type thing underneath the wing of a jet liner and up into a zero-g roll
Inclined loop, low turn over a ditch which has a helicopter in it... up into some weird corkscrew/zero-g hybrid
And then what appears to be a straight roll through the building that also houses the boarding area
Very exciting stuff.
Honestly I do expect it all to appear, unless given the thumbs down by the council like the rotating farm fan did on Saw.
Old scrapped aircraft wont cost that much. There are fields of that kinda junk in America.
Can't figure out what the main feature of this entire theme is going to be though. And I don't we'll understand that until we see how the train will be dressed.
Could it be some sort of military operation?
Are we going to be taken for a ride with the robot/monster/missile that caused all this havoc?
Are the wide rows of seats on the train supposed to be the pews of the church, and with a triumphant organ tune an army helicopter lifts us all through the roof to safety?
No?
Well, the apocalypse idea seems most likely at this point, but what in that case does the flying machine represent?
Is the roll over and dive at the start representing the stalling and crashing of our aircraft?

It definitely will be intimidating, especially to non regular park goers. I mean look here at how the first drop and zero-g just towers over flying fish.
I know everyone has seen the plans already, but just take note of how big flying fish's entrance is and how a person is compared to the track. I find a lot of the time I forget the scale of these rides in a plan. It's not impressive to someone in America realllllly, but for a UK park it's going to stand out.

This has probably already been said, but I really can't be bothered to trawl through 38 pages, so sorry.
Apparently Staines was the site of a major plane crash in the 70s that I'd never even heard about before.
No one else feel it's a bit disrespectful to have a load of fake crashed planes lying around on virtually the same site?
