The Jet Star coaster operated at Knoebels between 1977 and 1992. This was a powerful little coaster with some tight, fast turns. It was built by Schwarzkopf of Germany. The Jet Star was replaced by the Whirlwind steel looping coaster which lasted between 1993 until 2004. The new Flying Turns ride is currently on the site of the former Jet Star coaster.
Rode one of these at Coney Island back in the 80s. Great little coaster!
