If you've ridden Mind Eraser at a Six Flags park, you've ridden this coaster. I find this layout to be much more rough than it should be. - Todd Houts

Flight Deck (formerly Top Gun) was the top steel coaster at the park prior to this year's addition of Behemoth. Although it's not the newest, tallest or fastest coaster on the C/W property (Now) it's simply the best multi-inversion, suspended roller coaster in Canada right now. New this year is a video camera option on both Flight Deck and Vortex which records your ride experience ala a coaster TV show. DVD's are pricey and I would suggest you review the recording completely (for flaws) before you slap the money down for the recording. This coaster loses very little momentum throughout it's course and because it darts in and out of itself like an F-15 on steroids it has no helix to speak of. When you hit the braking zone make sure to hold on and support your neck because this stop is not for the beany baby types. This ride features the best barrel roll/cork screw in the park and a fantastic view from the FRONT SEAT of the park and surrounding area..a must to try it in the day and night as well. - William LeMasurier
