Yeh, Reed owns the Drop Zone(jungle drop).
i think reed expositions from paris, texas (thought they were from lufkin) owns a jungle drop named drop zone. i saw pictures of it at some fair in the texas panhandle area. don't know if it's theirs or not. wonder if they still own it
Sorry!

Just thought about the direction of the trailer. My brain is not working correct at the moment, due to my illness.[^]
The electric-controls of the Fabbri-towers are always at the end of the load.

Thanks! Wish you lots of fun tonight and take care.

OK! I just saw, that on of bouncemankev pics you can have a closer look at the centerload.
Just two questions left:
- Where is the end of the trailer? Front or back of the ride?
- Does it have the normal three axes?

Happy New Year Sven!..still got 6 hours to go here..
In germany the new year just begun. SO!

HAPPY NEW YEAR ![:D] (40 minutes ago).
I saw the jungle drop at your site (bouncemankev) and kind of liked the colour-scheme.
Pics of the Megadrop would be Ok, too. Because i think i have to improve my model of the ride a bit. Though i know, how it looks racked.
Thanks to all for your help.

Chris-

Actually the Mega Drop is not what Sven is looking for. While the rides are similar the Mega Drop:

http://www.flatrides.com...ex%20Pages/megadrop.html 

is taller and uses a cable-driven rig that raises the ring of seats and pushes them downward pneumatically, while the Jungle Drop:

http://www.flatrides.com...%20Pages/jungledrop.html 

is shorter (about 90 feet) and uses a chain lift like a coaster. The only ywo Jungle Drops I know of in the U.S. are owned by Libertyland Park and Robertson Amusements.

That looks like a Fabbri drop tower, and I have photos of Wade Shows' Fabbri Mega Drop racked from 2003, I will look for the disk with the photos and post them. Racks on two trailers (one is a pup). [:)]
