I like the colors of Geauga Lake's Yo Yo. It would be a great addition and it's a flat that would take up a vacant spot.

From the pic's it doesn't look like it has lights.

[RollerBee]

Wouldn't they have of annouced that we were getting a new ride if the GL Yo-yo was being relocated to Carowinds.

[CoasterChris]

Maybe they decided to send it to Carowinds after the wave pool announcement. The park might make another announcement but you never know with such a small used ride.

Thats if the park is even getting anything.
I just happened to notice some construction by Top Gun and i asked someone about it and they told me a ride was going there.

It's still a rumor but i personally think something is going there. Why else would they be doing construction.

[Thriller]

^ Could be more work on Top Gun (Flight Deck) or something. The Yo-Yo addition would be nice or just some sort of new flat! :blink:

[bgwfreak]

:huh: They renamed Top Gun at CGA Flight Deck as well.

I know it's just a name, but it still sucks.

I can think of a few better

F-14
F-14 Tomcat
TomCat
Afterburner

Is it really that hard for cedar fair to come up with decent names?

[CoasterChris]

I still think they should switch Flight Deck to Nighthawk since Nighthawk is the name of a U.S. Fighter Jet.

It's called th F-117 Stealth Nighthawk.

I would love to see that hanging off the supports in front of the coaster.

I guess either coaster could be named this. Just put a big model of it where the Borg sphere use to be.

Even just calling it Stealth would have been better IMO than Flight Deck. Flight Deck's are stationary (ok, so aircraft carriers move, but the deck doesn't in relation to what it's on), coasters DO. What's next, Launch Pad? Flight Plan? Runway? Especially if you are gonna use the name for multiple coasters, at least make it good. So many parks (mostly chains) are getting lazy these days. Here's an idea, send out a survey, let people vote on say 5 names, and pick the most popular, or let people put their own name, and choose the one that sounds best. How about an original name, Ace's High maybe?

[coasterdave]

Came to think of it if someone would do abit of research about Flight Decks then maybe it might come clear why that name might have been picked. Then again it might have been picked to give coaster nerds something to whine about during the off season till the park is reopened.

[bgwfreak]

Now when do we ever whine?

Oh wait...

[CoasterChris]

No Whine here unless it's white wine.

Can you explain?
"The flight deck of an aircraft carrier is the surface from which its aircraft take off and land, essentially a miniature airfield at sea. On smaller naval ships which do not have aviation as a primary mission, the landing area for helicopters and other VTOL aircraft is also referred to as the flight deck. The official U.S. Navy term for these vessels is "aviation capable ships"."

[coasterdave]

How did I guess someone would go to the almighty wikipedia and post something from it. Now that is interesting but now maybe you can attempt to tie that into why. And maybe abit more research on a more credible source with abit more info. Maybe someone can figure a reason out why and before anyone even asks this. I have really no idea why they named the ride Flight Deck.

On a side note: how is the family doing Roller?

[TopGunUkno]

Launch Pad...FLIGHT PLAN...

[montumax]

I can't wait to see the Flight Dreck t-shirts. Or the recorded spiel in the station..."we hope you've enjoyed your ride on the flight deck."

[wdwspider]

It's called th F-117 Stealth Nighthawk.

Maybe that's why BORG is becoming Nighthawk? Wasn't it Stealth before Carowinds got it? :huh:
