History
In 2000, Christopher R. Carwardine saw a report on CNN about the opening of a new coaster in California by the name of Stealth at California's Great America that emphasized the feeling of flight by "flying" close to the ground by way of suspended cars that harnessed riders in a prone position during the duration of the ride. Carwardine wanted to introduce a similar coaster that emphasized not only that, but also height and speed. Carwardine Colony asked for proposals from Vekoma, Intamin, TOGO, Arrow Dynamics, MSC, Bolliger & Mabillard, and USA Coaster Company to build a similar flying roller coaster. Carwardine chose Bolliger & Mabillard, as they were working on a concept for one with British designer. After installing Air at Alton Towers and the first installation of Superman: Ultimate Flight at Six Flags Over Georgia, Bolliger & Mabillard were ready to install Carwardine Colony's flying coaster.
