Do you have any more videos of the fly a plane?
Me encanta este juego.aca en mexico.se le conoce.como.aviones. Moscos.
Pleased to see someone saved this video as my old vintage fair website is no more. Is the Fly-o-Plane due to travel this year? I had a few rides on the day I made this video, but could only get a couple of flips in before I slid to the side and spent the rest of the ride hanging more or less upside down.
Masons sold up there yard and moved to Cornwall to open up a permanent tourist attraction. The fly o plane was up for sale but no one was interested so was chopped up, some parts and art work sold and the rest scrapped
Fantastic
Great to see it up and running, I worked with Jim and the masons clan between 92-94
Only place where to find a Fly O Plane carnival ride is Lake Winnie at Rossvile GA USA .
It's for sale.
how does this thing work
MsJinkerson it doesn't
There's a yoke inside similar to the control yoke of a light aircraft. Turning the yolk causes the wing on one side to dip up, while the opposite side dips down. This puts the plane into a spin around the nose, which is fixed in place and is what connects each plane to the center of the ride via a lifting arm. I'm not sure if they are any left now. The one at lake Winnipesaukee in rossville Georgia ejected a couple of kids in 2016 or 2017, and according to another comment here it was up for sale a year ago. There was another one at a park in Oklahoma but it's not currently listed as an operable ride, and a while back the owner posted something about it being restored but apparently it never was. There's one more in Montana but it's not in an operable state.
nice to see a gas engine on this
This is Awesome! It's basically a more traditional traveling version of the Red Arrows ride now at Blackpool Pleasure Beach which I've been on. I would definitely go on this. One thing I like about it too is you are in control of how much you spin or not by using the wings. Only a handful of rides let you do that such as Cups n' Saucers where you hold a disc in the middle of the cup to make it spin. The rock-o-plane big wheel (American egg) which has a break bar to either lock the car so it goes upside down then release it to spin. & Skid where you press a pedal to slow down your car then release it to accelerate forward. I love traditional rides like this like roll-o-plane (dive bomber) and especially the Octopus which unfortunately we never see now at modern funfairs, or the Monster which was a cross between the Octopus and Twister. Twister is about the only one you still see! In my personal opinion, as much as I love modern extreme thrill rides, some are just not as fun as these traditional ones. Put this next to a modern ride like Planet Rock and I'll choose this first (then maybe hop on the other lol, I'm 35 but a big kid at heart). Anyway, I only meant to leave a short comment but got carried away now it's a theses lol. Thanks for sharing this video. 😉
Ohhh the throw up would have been real after getting off that ohh so much spinning so fast at that
I soooooooo wanna go of this :)
Wow, looks like fun. I'm not sure I could take so much spinning around.
haha too many round ones or just the beer?????
Thanks for this wonderful video! What memories - some of these pilots were really good in your vid.
