Niles: Will a new record lead to a new focus at Six Flags?

Intamin's Falcons Flight last week opened officially at the new Six Flags Qiddiya City in Saudi Arabia. At nearly 14,000 feet long with a drop of over 500 feet and a top speed of more than 155 mph, Falcons Flight is now the world's longest, tallest and fastest roller coaster. Until last week, those records were held by three separate coasters, with the height record kept by an American coaster Cedar Point's Top Thrill 2.
