I didn't realize just how much of this ride is going to be enclosed or covered. It's looking like most if not all the launches will be covered?

Makes sense for a safety standpoint. I just hope these don't end up being bland dark tunnels. Which I doubt, but these tunnel/cover foundations look pretty thin. Not much room for interior theming.

I believe the second launch will be a timber framed "bridge". And the last launch a rock cave.

But I could be wrong.

That’s good to hear. When constructing something large like this in Florida, do they take unforeseen circumstances (I.e. bad weather) into their projections?

If they have another fall like last year would they be more likely to push opening back or double down on construction after the event?

Pretty sure you’re not allowed to post unreleased concept art on this forum.

There's so much that could be said about that photo. But I'm not going to be the one to go down that road. :lol:

Funny how these distant photos of the roof make the building seem much smaller in diameter than it actually is from the air.

Wow, those wood beams have been themed a whole lot more than I previously thought. All roughed up! Thanks Joe!

I love the way three of these performers are all jazzy hands and the fourth looks like he is swearing someone in to testify.

This looks like a scene from a horror movie where a man gets impaled by a roof part from Hagrids hut.
Having that man there you can see how huge this thing is.

Looks like one of those old European Cathedrals being reconstructed after a WW II bombing raid.
