Flight Deck is turning red, plus new name in the works?

Flight Deck is receiving a new red and silver paint job, as shown in a photo posted on CGA's Facebook:

Via Facebook.

According to PureCoaster, CGA may also change the coaster's name to something more football-related (i.e. "Touchdown") in reference to the park's newest neighbors, the 49ers.

New show for Action Theater?

According to a rumor from PureCoaster, the 10-year-old Spongebob 4D movie in the Action Theater could be on its way out.

The rumor said the film will be replaced with some sort of 2D white water rafting movie, possibly this season or next.

A Gold Striker photo update was posted as well.

Almost official: GCI woodie in 2013

CGA is reportedly dusting off the old plans for the GCI woodie. The park has applied for architectural reviews for a "wood coaster ride" on the city's permit website.

Screamscape is also confirming that the coaster will indeed open in 2013.

More good news: The new paint jobs for Demon, Flight Deck, and now Columbia are going well. Check out the pictures on CGA's Facebook.

2013 coaster rumor

Things are getting interesting...from Screamscape:

2013 - New Coaster - Rumor - (12/8/11) Screamscape sources tell us that Cedar Fair management may have privately confirmed to GCA management that the park would get a new roller coaster for 2013. So the question remains… is it the long delayed GCI wooden coaster or something new?

Surprise! No new rides for 2012

From Screamscape:

2012 - No New Attraction - (11/8/11) Our sources tell us that CGA has confirmed that there will be no new rides for the 2012 season, as the new management will focus on taking control of the park and putting their own house in order.

Looks like we will have another "transition" year, similar to 2007. At the very least, maybe Flight Deck and Drop Tower will be renamed once again.

Rumor: Demon next to go?

Take this with a grain of salt, folks: On a recent Youtube video that CGA posted, a user who supposedly works for a local demolition company wrote a comment, claiming that the park has been gathering estimates for a potential demolition of the Demon.

As always, this could be a troll looking for attention, and have no basis in fact whatsoever.

Rumor: Halloween Haunt expansion?

An anonymous user on Wikipedia has posted that a Halloween Haunt expansion is scheduled for this year.  While it is Wikipedia, an expansion surely sounds plausible, as CGA has consistently expanded the event every year.

Haunt details are usually announced around August, so we won't have too long to wait.
