I'm not sure if this has been brought up...but any news on the dramatic lighting that these windseekers are supposed to have? On the websites, they say the lighting will be impressive and great for both rider and viewer...so i was just wondering if anyone has heard what to expect?
People who don't know me think I'm quiet...People who do, wish i was!
haha right!...and I thought it interesting that more information about the construction dates, lighting, ect. were on (at least) kI's website than CP
Speaking of, has it been said when actual parts are to show up on the construction site?

not specifically. They recently tweeted that the parts had left the factory and were on their way. Someone else on here who did the park tour said that ride construction would begin in March. While it may not seem like much time, its probably more than enough for construction and testing. If I guessed, not including the gondola, the tower is probably in 5-6 individual parts.
If WindSeeker's lighting package is anything like the new LED lighting package the 300 foot Skycoaster in Kissimmee, FL received, I'd be really excited for it. I saw the Skycoaster's lighting in person a few days ago, and it's really impressive. You can see it in this Youtube video.
To me, it looks like that lighting is actually on the ride itself. Windseeker's lights at KI were said to be tested on their Drop Tower ride. I assume that this means the lights will be at the base and just shine up the tower. Just a guess though. :)
I couldn't get it to work either. I found this video on my own though and think this is what he's referring to.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2sf4Bzml2s
