While I have been on numerous flying coasters they all feel so weird after the car positions you in the "flying" position.  You just awkwardly hang there until...



....you head over the first drop going faster and faster as the train lets gravity take control.



After reaching the bottom of the first drop Manta takes you skyward..



...up into the pretzel loop.



Pretzel loops are great on flying coasters as you get wonderful airtime heading up into the loop's entrance and then as the ride dives head first towards the ground you get pressed into the train with intense positive g forces.  It is airtime and then in a heart beat you have all the force pushing you down.
