Flight Deck (Kings Country)

Flight Deck is a steel inverted roller coaster located at Kings Country

Trains
Flight Deck operates with three trains made of steel and fiberglass, containing eight cars that seat four riders each in a single row, for a total of 32 riders per train. This configuration allows for a theoretical 1,650 riders per hour. Riders are restrained by flexible, over-the-shoulder restraints and interlocking seat belts, similar to those used on Bolliger & Mabillard's Wing Coasters but a first for the company's inverted roller coaster model. Each train is painted a different color – red, yellow and blue.

Track
Banshee's tubular steel track is 4124 ft long and the lift is approximately 167 ft high. The track was manufactured by Clermont Steel Fabricators located in Batavia, Ohio. Additionally, the first vertical loop featured on Banshee wraps around the lift hill.

Ride experience
Banshee stands 167 ft tall and features a first drop of 150 ft. With a length of 4124 ft, the ride is the world's longest inverted roller coaster. The ride includes seven inversions including two vertical loops, a dive loop, a zero-g roll, a pretzel knot and an inline twist. Riders experience speeds of up to 68 mph on the 2 minute and 40 second ride.

After departing from the station, the train makes a left turn towards the 167 ft chain lift hill. After reaching the top, the sound of a banshee screaming is played as the train drops 150 ft into a heavily-banked right turn. After reaching the bottom of the drop, riders enter a dive loop immediately followed by a vertical loop around the lift hill. Continuing down the valley, the train enters the third inversion, a zero-gravity roll, where riders experience the feeling of weightlessness. Next, the train makes an upward left-hand turn into a "pretzel knot" (an element where the train enters a dive loop, followed by an Immelmann loop). Upon exiting the pretzel knot, the train enters a second vertical loop before making a right turn into an inline twist. Following a downward left hand helix, the train makes a final banked right turn into the final brake run leading back to the station.
