Ariel View?
Hey.....Any of you that live up in the CP area seen or heard of any recent Ariel Views? Like a local news station's chopper cam or something? Maybe someone up there should write the News Stations and suggest it? I mean it couldn't hurt....From the sounds of things people are saying all the news stations coverage of the New Ride has been lame....Tell'em to spice it up alittle....
Thanks Big D! That pic reminds me alot of Hypersonic at PKD. Hope more developes... O by the way....How recent is that pic? and is there anymore of the surrounding area being used for the ride?
Good video link. Anybody know when that aired? Looks like lots of recent pics are up there. I haven't seen those wire frames there before....

Here's a few cool aerial shots from RCDB:

That last pic tells a lot about the current height of the ride. It is obviously taken from the top of the Gemini lift (125 ft). You are eye level with about the middle of the 3rd section of track (b/c you can see the top of the 2nd level of supports and the bottom of the 3rd level. Therefore, each level is 50 ft (125/2.5). That would put the current height around 260 or 270 ft.
I don't know which I'm concerned with more: the fact that someone took on-ride pics at CP (not saying it's bad, it's just against the rules), or the fact that they put their name on it. That's a quick way to get on the park's bad side.
