This brings back so many memories, it’s the sound that hits the hardest, I loved the flying carpet and I’d never want to get off. I’d love to see it come back bigger that goes higher but with the same old school look
3 specific sounds i remember:the "clapping" sound the Swing-A-Round made,the "chain-grinding" sound the original Steel Phantom made as it was going up the first hill,and that windy,"WHIRRRRRLING" sound u heard on The Flying Carpet.
The engineering in this ride was so complex at its time, as they got old they became very expensive to maintain, it's very rare to find original flying carpets these days. One of my favourites
I haven't been to Kennywood in several years, but this was one of my favorite rides. I'm really going to miss it. They seemed to have changed it. I definitely remember it used to swing back and forth a few more times than in this video before it would get all the way around. The ride seems so rushed in the video. I must have been lucky to ride it in it's pre-breakdown era, because it was always working when I was there. Gave great butterfiles in your stomach, too. I loved it!
This was always one of my favorites...so sad they took it out :( They need to find a place for it in Lost Kennywood...or they could just get rid of the stupid Chaos thing.
this was my dads favorite ride and i didnt care for it that much when i was a kid but i miss it now i guess because my dad passed away 2years ago and alot of kennywood rides they used to have he liked and i cant even ride them anymore cuz they got different ones but oh well i guess
Yeah they have one at Six Flags New England just not with that theming its called the Buzzsaw, used to be called the Slingshot when the park was Riverside
You must hold on very tight because it feels like it is doing everything it can to throw you out of the seat. I wonder if there were ever any accidents involving someone who did not hold on tight enough.
i loved this ride. one of the best kennywod ever had. i used to ride it like 15 times a day. one time i decided to put my hands up (dumb move) and punched a guy in the back of the head. he was so mad. i thought i was gonna get beat up. it was funny though. good memories
OMG. I hate this ride. I was bruised all over later, because when it pushes you forward when going round, the metal bar hits you in the chest. It really hurts! There is one of these in Scotland
this ride was the bomb not really thats the thunderbolt but this was great kennywood needs to think about the customers or whatever u wanna call em but you should think do more people want this ride gone for a new one or are we making money as it is at fucking 60 dollars a person or should we risk losing customers
God the Cosmic Chaos sucks so bad -_-' There's NO thrill to it. At least this made your stomach bouce a lot and gave you some thrill. The cosmic Chaos is all show.
omg the cosmic chas lol what were u thinking well what would u say if the seat was better lol hahahahahaha and this is how u spell it cosmic choas lol yall funny
My son was almost killed on this ride. He slipped under the bar and fell to the floor. I had to get under the bar and grab him then wedge myself between the seats until the ride stopped. I yelled for the operator to stop but he didn't. That was in 1999. Never went back to that park afterwards.
one of those rides with the unmistakable "sound". some of the best memories are the sounds specific to certain rides. i miss it a lot.

I loved this ride. I always liked the music they played too and the distinct sound it made as it was turning. : )
The way I remembered it was it kept feeling like I would fly right out of my seat. It was kinda frightening.
I miss this ride, but honestly, Cosmic Chaos is a better ride...
This ride was broke down about every other time we would go, at least 3 times each summer.
