maXair is testing right now, you can see it on the Funcoast cam!

Currently, I have a timing of 2:10 average per cycle after four cyclings. ;)

When I got off from Qhite Water Clean-up. I walked over to Kiddy Kingdom and watched it cycle. It looks really cool but still not sure yet if I will ride.

Sorry about double post

It sure was being tested alot during the past 2 hrs. I have some pics I saved if anyone wants to see them.

Some people have lives...lol. I have been at school all day, and will be gone most of the weekend. I probably won't see any CP rides running until I am there in person on opening day. *** Edited 4/15/2005 1:24:55 AM UTC by Kyle Dersch***

I did catch one with the arm parallel to the ground, the WT train on the back spike and DT at the top of the lift.

And how exactly did you catch Disaster Transport at the top of the lift? Just wondering.

Yes it's true, maXair has been testing for the past week or so. Yes it looks even bigger standing right next to it when it's swinging. I was even amazed at how you could see the arm/disc flinging from all over the park. As far back as Camp Snoopy and White Water Landing are some of the places this thing can be seen. But then again, it could have to do with the lack of leaves on the trees right now.

I didn't even notice Wicked Twister testing in the background! But then, I was only doing a quick check while a script was running and had enough time to save the picture before getting back to work.

Giant wheel has it's cabins on.

Nice photo OldCPer, got more than you expected too.

That's really not too bad. Unfortunately, there are no guests loading so we can't yet determine if those times will hold up.

If 2:10 happens to hold up with guests 1.) I will be very suprised and 2.) We'll have a real people eater. Possibly quicker moving lines than Delirium.

You can't see it? Huh, I've been watching it test all week.

I just check the cam now - and those two guys standing in the front of ride in OldCPer's pciture are still there....

The maXair construction photo gallery on the CP website has been updated with four new pictures taken on April 14.

I'm amazed how accurate the artist's rendering is compared the 2nd one in from the left(-the view from straight on). I know that it's supposed to be close, but sometimes there are major differences, and this one looks pretty accurate.

I snapped a couple test pictures this morning. It's still running if anyone wants to check it out now via CP cam or Funcoast cam.

All I have seen is what I think looks like maXair on the cedar point website banner. I am not sure if anyone has noticed it, but I could be wrong it looks like it's in full swing about half way down the first drop of Mean Streak
