Bring one to SFNE next and keep the wild mouse at Kentucky Kingdom! We'll settle

[Fire2boxHoly crap you have a HUGE donkey!]

But you can't deny that would make the park's skyline pop; Though a starflyer will have an impact on the skyline as well.

I really hope it takes place of Skycoaster. Someone else wanted to see it where the go-kart track is but I always see a few people driving around on the go karts. Plus if it's where the gokarts are, the sky line won't look that great. Plus that area already has V2, Roar and tony Hawks rollercoaster's. I would prefer seeing great rides scattered all over the park rather then just on two sides of the park.

[Six Flags EnthuseastDoesn't know how to spell "Enthusiast."]

Judging on the theming, I wouldn't be surprised if it was placed somewhere in or near the Sky themed area. However, as the description goes, it would probably be placed a little bit further back... I think the most logical places to put it would be either the small bit of land between Kong and Boomerang or, as mentioned before, somewhere near the Skycoaster. Both places seem to have a small amount of space for a Star Flyer, though.....

[TmcdllrWhy do I still have a donkey title???]

I'm impressed, this looks really fun. If only CGA would get a 200 foot version of this. Might as well, everyone else seems to be getting one. Eventhough this may not be as tall as some of the others, 150 feet for a swing ride is still thrilling. Should be a lot of fun.

They're is no "sky" themed area. That's just the name given to rides in an area. Sky area rides are all over the park like Medusa, Roar, Boomerang ect.

Also to add to what Kevin had said I doubt any up charge rides would leave anyway. Now if they could take out the 3D theatre in favor of this ride I would love that. Seems as if however its a "credit whore" ride. Either way I'm still really excited for this.

[DBruI will provide you with maximum pleasure.]

They definitely should have gone with a taller version, and leaned it 45 degrees on its side.

That would be the optimum place for it, since the hilltop location would add a pop of elevation. Hey, is that height limit above ground level or lake level. I wonder?

[TmcdllrWhy do I still have a donkey title???]

So "land" refers to the animals
"sea" refers to the aquatic animals
"sky" refers to the rides

Correct?

[coasteredI know more about donkeys than women!]

How many more are they gonna build? Still looks cool though.

I'm waiting for one being constructed on top of the Stratosphere Tower.

The tower is around 1150ft high and then put a 230ft starflyer on top of that.
That would be truth crazy Vegas style.

My guess would be ground level. All I know is it has to do with those damn neighbors complaining years ago.
