http://www.channelcincinnati.com/news/2 ... etail.html<br><br>Very sad story. <br><br>It was about 90 out that day. Park was most likely pretty busy witch results in a decent sized wait for this ride. A few details about the ride may help those of you who never have been on a ride like this<br><br>Its a 78 ft tall Arrow Dynamics Suspended rollercoaster based on the movie Top Gun. Ride is built on a hill and goes though a valley simulating fighter pilot manuivers. It was built in 1993 and runs 2 trains with Over the shoulder harnesses its top speed is 55mph. It was the last Arrow Suspended coaster made as the suspended coasters cannot do a inversion(go upside down) The Inverted coaster debued that year and this type of ride became old. Ride time is about 59 seconds once your off the lift. <br>Arrow Dynamics is now <a href="http://www.arrowdynamics.com/" target="_new">S&S-Arrow.</a> <br>More info on Top gun can be found <a href="http://www.rcdb.com/installationdetail73.htm" target="_new">Here</a><br>Park by law offers free water avalable at any foodstand in the park also there are water foutians all over the place. I was on the crew of Top gun in 2002 and 2001. <p><center><i><span style="color:red;">Anything said by me does not reflect the views of me or myself.</span></i><center><a href="http://tsone85.blogspot.com" target="_new">My blog filled with Bloggy goodness</a></center><p><map name="FPMap0"><area coords="25, 260, 383, 299" shape="rect" href="http://pub19.ezboard.com/ftenchimuyo79943frm142"><area coords="133, 0, 293, 21" shape="rect" href="http://pub19.ezboard.com/btenchimuyo79943.showUserPublicProfile?gid=stunningsteve316"></map><img border="0" src="http://www.unitedanime.com/degen78/tenchihalf.jpg" usemap="#FPMap0" width="400" height="300"></p></p><i></i>

Didn't the lady that died stand up on the roller coaster? <p></p><i></i>

I'm feeling cold blooded right now. That being said, stupid people are ment to die. It's nature's way of thining the herd. <p><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.suncitystreetscene.net/forum/html/emoticons/muscles.gif" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center">"Hashiriya are lonely drivers so, we do not need girlfriends."</div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>

There are 4 versions of top gun<br>2 are B&M Inverted rollerocasters at Paramount's Great America and Paramounts Carowinds and a Vekoma suspended looping rollercoaster at Canada's wonderland in Canada. <br>King's Islands version Doesn't go upside down. Infact its considered a starter ride for young children.
