FAA Comments

Part of new ride section built on the former Wyandot Lake site. Control panel allows operator to choose between "High" and "Low" operating speeds.

Info on FAA Rating: Criteria

FAA rates Flying Scooters on the following criteria: maintenance, park policies on snapping, location aesthetics, ride theming, negative modifications and motor speed.

Disclaimer on "Snappability" designations:

FAA members follow posted park rules and operator directions. We respect parks that have made the decision to limit the practice of "snapping" the cables on their rides.
