To paint a better image of what Falcon's Flight is set on achieving, Qiddya released specs for the project earlier this year. According to the press release, Falcon's Flight is set to hit speeds over 155 mph and reach heights of about 525 feet. Currently, the fastest roller coaster is Formula Rossa in Ferrari World Abu Dhabi, which allows riders to experience speeds up to 149 mph. The tallest steel roller coaster in the world is Kingda Ka in Six Flags Great Adventure, located in New Jersey, which stands at a staggering 456 feet. If Falcon's Flight manages to surpass both of these coasters in terms of height and speed, it would be the fastest and tallest roller coaster in the world.
Test videos of the project have surfaced on the internet that display some of these key features. Based on footage, the track for Falcon's Flight is pretty intricate. With railings built on the side of cliffs and drops that tunnel through an entire mountainside, this is gearing up to be quite the promising thrill ride. The project is set to be completed in 2023, meaning that adrenaline seekers will have to wait a bit before experiencing this incredible roller coaster. Perhaps the John Wick roller coaster set to open in Dubai might make its debut before Falcon's Flight.
