X-Flight - Six Flags Great America (B&M Wing Coaster)

[Simba]

Another new B&M winged rider is being built at Six Flags Great America.
Their is not much vertical construction going on at the moment but this will be the second winged rider coaster to feature the Thorpe Park Loop (The Swarm being the first)


The layout however does look better in comparison to The Swarm but not as good in my opinion to Wild Eagle.


I am semi supprised how quickly B&M Winged Riders have taken off.

(Raptor [Open], Swarm [Construction], Wild Eagle [Construction], X-Flight [Construction] and a number of others in construction for 2012/2013)

In layout terms for me, it does go this and then Wild eagle and Swarm being very close but swarm just edging it.


They all look brillaint though.

This may be the smallest but that doesn't stop it from being fun and having a better layout. Take Alpengeist and Nemesis as an example.

Construction is Now finished and it looks brilliant.

Wow X-Flight looks brilliant!
Lets hope the trains look better than the concept art

[Thekingin64]

There is a picture and they're worse. Just pure painted train Structure.



I think the simplicity makes it look brilliant though.

All B&M wing coasters look amazing, and they are all unique in their own special way. I agree with Thekingin64 that this is the best coloured one but as there are only four* currently in existence including X-Flight (Raptor, Wild Eagle and The Swarm)

Five including the Furious Boco at Europa Park by Intamin
