Project 2019: Finnegan's Flyer (S&S Screamin' Swing)

[enaosaka]

So wait; where does the 90' height waiver come from if the Screamin' Swing is only gonna be 65' tall? Is that just bcuz the highest point of the ride would be 90' above the ravine?

I wanted to do a sketch just to better help me visualize how this would feel in that area and I've got to say, if they're able to pull it off, it'd look pretty sweet.

 

[enaosaka]

Yeah, it would.

Now I wish that Killarney would get some more stuff, maybe a Eurofighter or smthg.

I've been a big fan of the idea of one of those Mack spinning coasters like Cobra's Curse going into Killarney.

I would like that a lot after Madrid. Maybe a launched one like Time Traveler.

 

[warfelg]

I....I kinda like Killarney the way it is....


As for this, @Zachary im taking by the images and descriptions that the one side is gonna swing over the ravine? That’s great.

 

[Zachary]

Yep. Both arms will swing out over the ravine/water on the eastern side and over the queue building on the western side.

 

[madmax]

Whew a lot of rides are going to the ravine in this park.

 

[Sly4Good]

I shouldn't be as curious as to how this thing is going to be themed as I actually am. This sketch is probably way off the mark, but it's fun trying to visualize this thing y'know?

 

[Thomas]

Swinging out over the water and having that great aerial view of Killarney is what will make this ride.

 

[wombat96]

Even if it does taint the tranquil atmosphere of the transition from Scotland to Ireland, like @Thomas was saying this ride will be a visual masterpiece. I was down underneath the railroad trestle just marveling how high the mere 25 foot tall entry towers look down there and knowing that the max height of the ride will be another forty feet taller seems unreal. Swinging out over that ravine and staring down at the murky green waters as guests watch from the bridge and the bustling Kilarney will be in view full is going to be quite the magical experince.

 

[Sly4Good]

Real life is getting in the way of finishing my visualizer on time, but man I'm way too hyped for this thing. I have a feeling it's going to look absolutely stunning.

 

[madmax]

So is there actually an announcement for this coming tomorrow? What time?
