The story of Flying School
Flying School joined LEGOLAND Florida when the park opened in 2011, bringing a suspended family coaster to the new Florida resort. coasterpedia.net· amusementtoday.com
Vekoma supplied the steel suspended design, with the train running beneath the rails rather than above them. The arrangement gives each journey its characteristic hanging flight through the park. coasterpedia.net· legoland.com
The installation represented an investment of five million dollars, a considerable piece of engineering for a family attraction intended to carry a steady stream of young visitors and their companions. amusementtoday.com
