There was no real decline in popularity for the Flying Turns. In fact, they were some of the most popular rides at any amusement park. Unfortunately, most of the places that had them are now closed or had them taken out.

I think it's going to turn out very well. We're sure it'll be a very big attraction when it's finished.

We'd really like to have it up and running by mid summer, but with a project like this it's very hard to say. Not only do we have to reconstruct this ride of old times but we have to have it up to par as far as modern safety standards go.

We're pretty much breaking new territory here. Because this is such an old ride, there aren't many detailed blueprints left. There are no notes on how to correctly bend the wood for the course or what other materials they used to use. We're really bringing a lot together for this project.

Tables are hot, there's no doubt about it. A lot of that is fueled by poker's popularity and its popularity on TV, which is showing Americans that table games in general are fun.

It's all good at the moment. We are really flying.
