As a hardcore rollercoaster guy, I still refuse to believe this is real. It's been talked about for a decade. I would wager this thing has way more mechanical downtime than uptime.

Doubtful, Intamin is the ride manufacturer s and has designed, engineered some of the best amusement rides over the past 50 years.

Intamin has their fair share of mechanical issues, especially on record-breaking rides. Both Top Thrill Dragster and Kindga-Ka were down a bunch in their first few years. Formula Rossa has had a decent bit of downtime, too. I just foresee a lot going wrong with Falcon's Flight. Multiple launches and high speeds. Add in external things like wind, sand, and heat. It's a lot to go wrong.

Yeah but its LIM launches, not the old catallpults like original kingda ka and top thrill

I think it'll be good

Meh, those coasters were opened quite some time ago.

Top Thrill - 2003, Kindga-Ka - 2005, and Formula Rossa 2010

The tech has changed considerably since then. Track fatigue is more of an issue with older coasters.
