X Flight PKI?

Are you trying to prove someone wrong by posting "proof" the loop is staying? Yeah...um, too bad the park itself announced the the loop's removal.

So...Why is the loop still in those pictures? Maybe because those pictures were taken on December 3rd? The release about the loop wasn't made until ten days later...a lot can happen in the span of a few days.

It was taken BEFORE they took it down? Nicee..

It says date added Dec.12

Well, at least Son of Beast will be a little less bruising. I never liked the loop anyway.

One of the site's photographers took the pictures on a fly-over on December 3rd. The site held onto those pictures without posting them until they had gotten permission from the park...which would've been the 12th, and is why they were added then.

I didn't even like X-Flight and it still hurts...

Hey, I may have seen Coasterdad and not even known it. I got a bunch of new pics today myself.

PKI's main web page now trumpets a forthcoming major new announcement for the 2007 season:

I'm guessing there's a good chance it's X-Flight.

Well, if X-Flight is in fact going to PKI, or anywhere else for that matter. I doubt it would be running for opening day. Maybe a mid to late season opening.

Considering where the site work is going on at PKI, it shouldn't be disruptive to the daily opperations at all, regardless of what is going there.

Does anyone know why Son of Beast's loop is missing in the pictures from the link at the top of the page

Umm...

Well, sorry to break it to you. But, apparently you've been living in a cave, because they took it out.

LOL!! Yeah, the loop is history. There are officially no more looping woodies in the world.

^Other than that 500 foot wooden looper replacing Mean Streak in 2008. ;)

Had to say it!!

^ I knew someone was eventually going to do that.

It will be nice for PKI getting X-Flight, but I still wish that MiAd would get it instead.

*EDIT*
I just realized that there maybe no X-Flight going towards PKI. They said that they were geting a new ride, but spending $10 million on a used coaster especially one owened by the same company is a little too much. I would understand at least $4 or 5 million for a ride move. That could be a new flat ride instead. No footers equipment on site yet anyway.
