Turning the water jets back on is still near the top of my SFGAm wishlist, however. Adds alot to the experience
Side Note: X-Flight celebrates it's 5th anniversary next week
In addition to the water jets, I'd like to see them add back the fog/smoke in the tower!
Single Day Ride Count Record

The thing about xflights layout was that it was designed to be cloned. There were gonna be all these custom wing riders, but xflight would be like the Batman for wing riders. Turns out six flags said bye bye to b&m and the whole clone didn't take off, but maybe if cedar fair adds this then cedar fair could install these at some of the mid sized parks. Sorry I know this is old, but it's been a while

I think the clones are popping up in China at the Happy Valley chain.
I'm a fan of X-Flight. It was the first B&M Wing Coaster I tried, and while I was underwhelmed at the time, I've since ridden Gatesleeper and Mild Eagle- X-Flight kicks it compared to those two. Looking forward to Holiday World's offering later this summer.
Ah yes, Thunderbird. Wonderful ride. Incredible launch, quite forceful(compared to the rest of the wing coasters), and has a really nice setting. You won't be disappointed!
