I’ve spoken to a guy at reception and he’s told me engineers are having a hard time fixing stealth and the parts are really hard to come by so he said it could be off for a while still yet. Quote

But it tested on Saturday so it DOES work which I don't understand.... Quote

There wasn't staff there before. It was just cordoned off by rope. There was only staff there for about a week before. If you go round again, can you mention to them that it tested on Saturday and see what they say about it... Quote

Got some interesting news on stealth Jax, I’ve spoken to the staff guarding the area. The man was great and he said the engineers are working between the launch bunker and where the catch car is. They are actively working on it now as we speak. They have been testing it today and it’s been making the crest but they are still doing the remainder of the work so it might be operational quite soon. He did say the part ordered came recently but it’s such a complex coaster to work on so it takes time and a lot of money. Hope this helps Quote

Jax Posted May 20 Report Posted May 20 Good news! It's been testing consistently today (6 times) jordionie and JoelAllen 2 Quote
JoshC. Posted May 20 Report Posted May 20 Testing 6 times across a day is hardly consistent. Obviously positive steps, but let's not get ahead of ourselves yet. Quote

jordionie Posted May 20 Report Posted May 20 50 minutes ago, Jax said: Going off what someone at the park was told by a worker I got told it could be open by the end of the week. The member of staff I spoke to said they genuinely don’t get told much at all but the engineers have been saying positive things to staff which is a great sign. It may not open either by the end of the week. How long is a piece of string really. I’m happy though that I managed to find something out and let you all know 😊 Quote
JoelAllen Posted May 20 Report Posted May 20 That's great to hear! Fingers crossed I've been missing Stealth! Quote

Jax Posted May 21 Report Posted May 21 Anybody at the park today? Any sign of action or anything? Quote
JoshC. Posted May 21 Report Posted May 21 I'm not there today, but it hasn't opened. Unsure if it's been testing but it not open. Quote
James Posted May 22 Report Posted May 22 Doesn't look like it'll be opening today. Area still barried off, couple of people milling around. The music is off and not seen it testing yet either. jordionie 1 Quote
