Ever wish you could fly? Well now you can on Tatsu, the longest, fastest, and tallest flying roller coaster around. Before take-off, the seats are rotated face down, Superman style, to simulate flight for the entire two minute ride. With 3,602 feet of track and 263 feet in plunges, Tatsu, soars over four areas of the park while diving, turning, and doing a record-breaking 124-foot pretzel roll. With four, stomach dropping inversions, this steel flying coaster is the ultimate flight experience and tops out at 62 mph. This scream-inducing coaster can accommodate up to 1,600 riders per hour, so adventure lovers can experience the thrill of flying over and over and over again.
