X-Flight, Six Flags Great America B-ROLL footage

B-Roll footage of Six Flags Great America's new-for-2012 B&M wingrider coaster, X-Flights.

X-Flight will take riders on a flight that defies gravity, with no track above or below them. Riders sit in pairs, suspended on either side of the track with their feet dangling, as they begin their climb up a 12-story plunge launching them into speeds of 55mph through 3,000 feet of intense drops and five inversions, including a barrel roll and zero-g roll. One of the most adrenaline-pumping moments on the ride is an extreme fly-through where the coaster speeds straight toward a structure, before making a last-minute vertical flip to fit through a keyhole cut-out.

Is X-Flight being built where Iron Wolf is, or is it being built somewhere else in the park?

@sixflagsfan1113 It will be built on the former Splash Water Falls/Antique Cars area.
