Unlike Bolliger & Mabillard's Batman, this inverted is not
shoehorned into the space where the Tidal Wave shuttle loop coaster used
to sit. Instead this inverted coaster is spread out around the corner
of the park.
After a ninety-one foot first drop Flight Deck takes you through the
first of the rides three inversions with this vertical loop.
I like how Flight Deck's zero gravity roll goes right over the top of
the Theater Royale. It is a nice visual centerpiece as you walk
into Orleans Place.
With the early pass holder ride time I think we were the only people in
the park. They had the Orleans Place and all of the rides there
open for us and we took advantage of it with some rides on Flight Deck
and Rue Le Dodge.
After wrapping around the theater Flight Deck heads back behind the
park.
