Aeronautica Landing at Carowinds Theme Park, Charlotte North & South Carolina

As I said earlier that Carowinds did a really good job theming up this corner of the park to aviation.

Wind Star was one of the many rides added to create this themed area back in 2023.

Bond and Travis took Wind Star for a spin.  It is a nice little ride where riders get to control how high they go.  It's basically a adult version of the old Red Baron plane rides we all rode at parks when we were kids.

With the aerial theme it is no surprise to find a Zamperla rides Air Racers ride here.  These rides look so much fin but not wanting to ruin my day at a park I'm just going to avoid giving one a try.

We saw the Hover and Dodge bumper car ride and decided to give it a try.  The cars looked really cool but our ride session was rather lacking as they have no speed which means not much bumping.  A lack of force to properly bump with ruins a bumper car ride.
