Looks cool. Just make sure that the lift says 5 or 8 mph instead of 2.

Lift speed should be 1 with a acceleration speed of 0.1

^ yeah, i actually am doing that on the eurofighter I'm working on. it keeps the speed slow on the entrance of the lift, just like the real thing.
Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.

Reminds me of this:

By the way, If you're going to build another jet coaster, why not a good, airtime filled terain coaster? Like this:

I saw this in a TPR report. The woodie in the backround has a roll cage [lol]

I think White Canyon has more of a "make it really hard to stick your hands out" cage since it has quite the headchoppers and sidechoppers(?).

I think you'd be able to get your hands up, but not out to the side, it looks like they're meant to stop you reaching out to the side. Just so they didn't have to make sure it passed tunnel test I guess [lol]

If it has airtime, then it is not a jet coaster.

Jet coasters by definition, are free from thrill.

If they contain elemtns such as airtime or inversions, then they are no longer Jet coasters. They may simply just be crappy coasters in the style of a Jet coaster, but as soon as an element of thrill is added, it just becomes a standard crap coaster.

I'd bet most Jet Coasters have intense airtime in the same way Magnum does. Sharp pullovers with no transitions at all make for some hard hitting ejector. Even if they don't look like it, I bet they do.

nope, they go over those hills at such slow speeds nothing happens. And if they did then they would not be jet coasters.

Definitely a Jet Coaster, yet looks to have some pretty extreme airtime.

If it's awfully shaped, named weird, and has catwalks all over the ride, I'm pretty sure it's a jet coaster.

And I'm pretty sure it is just an awfully shaped, weird named, catwalked normal coaster. The very fact that it has airtime and is mildly exciting makes it not a jet coaster.
