It sounds like they are no longer owned by AB-Inbev (the proper name by the way) properties anymore yet we are in a transition period or something like that.

Where did you hear that?  And my Inbev comment was intentional I know what the real name is Just being snarky since I think at some point the parks are going to suffer as a result of this merger.

i dont think that flyers have wheel covers....

As Threepio would say, "Don't those trains know their parts are showing?

I noticed this thread has not been posted in a while and figured I would bring it back. I rode Manta last week for the first time during a soft opening session and I can honestly say this is now my 2nd favorite coaster of 105 coasters ridden. The ride is just phenomenal without a doubt. From start to finish it never stops rolling out the thrills. The preztal is an amazing element. I've been on 4 flyers now and this is my favorite because it's just a flat out extremely fun ride. The wing dip water splash area is quite the sight to see and experience as well. You come down to it and see the water splash and you actually feel as if your touching the water. Seaworld has a great ride here and if any of you get the chance to come ride it, definetly stop by to ride it. It's truely a marvelous B&M Flyer!
