Soarin' Over California Queue Preshow @ Disneyland's DCA

Queue:
While waiting in line, guests have the opportunity to visit the Wings of Fame, an homage to aircraft giving significant contributions to the Aviation Industry of California. Such planes included in the Wings of Fame are the P-51 Mustang, SR-71 Blackbird, and the X-1 Starfighter. Further passing the Wings of Fame is a small section dedicated to inividuals who have also contributed significantly to the Aviation industry of California such as Amelia Earhart, Jack Northrop, and Chuck Yeager. With each acknowledgement of their contribution is a small informative background of each aircraft or individual.

Preshow
Before being boarded into the hangar, guests will be placed into a preshow area, thematically named "Alpha Gate", "Bravo Gate", or "Charlie Gate." While waiting in this area, guests will have the opportunity to interact with Cast Members. Just before boarding guests will watch a Pre-Boarding video hosted by their Chief Flight Attendant, Patrick Warburton.

Trivia
There are two confirmed hidden Mickeys in the ride. One is on the golf ball hit by former Disney CEO Michael Eisner. The second is in the fireworks finale, composed of three strategically placed blooms, a design currently used in displays at Disney parks worldwide.
During the desert scene, just before the appearance of the USAF Thunderbirds, the path the horseback riders take leads to a cliff edge and a long drop.
During the first few seconds of the scene with the aircraft carrier in port in San Diego, the shadow of the helicopter with the IMAX camera can be seen on the bottom left of the screen on the side of the ship.
At the time of the Soarin' movie filming, Disney's California Adventure was still being built. The California Adventure park is very dark when the helicopter flies over Disneyland and the old ticket booths are still visible.
Also at the time of filming,the former Rocket Rods were still operating. The entrance is visible at the Disneyland scene.
In the Disneyland Christmas finale, the parade is not moving. The toy soldiers march in place and the floats are stationary. Producers did this to allow the IMAX helicopter to make several passes.
The Disneyland Christmas finale was actually filmed during a private Family Cast Holiday Party, closed to the general public.
