Does anybody know what's happening with Condor? The last I saw there was a sign saying Opening Spring 2005. I was there a couple of weeks ago in June. Thanks

I can't say I know. It be SBNO until the opening of the 2006 season, but I doubt that. I also doubt more the possibility of removal.

the condor should open soon. I heard a lot of the work on the ride is done, so hopefully it'll be done soon.

It's not going to be removed they just refurbished the thing, it should be opening soon since it looks like it is almost ready to go.

Someone here said Condor was trailer mounted, did they keep it like that?

A few parts didn't arrive in time, then had to be sent back to HUSS, etc..
It is finished and is waiting for its inspection.

I saw it testing while I was working(One of my rides is Rue Le Dodge so I get an ok view of Condor.). It looked like it ran pretty nicely.
This is where I would usually put stuff. Can't think of anything right now... =/

It's funny as posting on a msg board/newsgroup is grounds for termination at Six Flags.
