  1. Actually, Taft offered their stake in all parks to Paramount as part of the sale. Paramount cherrypicked and elected not to take on Australia's Wonderland because of the distance and difficulty in managing the park remotely. It was nothing to do with whether they had a minority stake or otherwise - they could still have sold that stake. I'm impressed! Yes, you're pretty much right. I'm not 100% on whether Demon was a Taft project or a paramount one - although i'm leaning towards it being Taft due to the lead time. As for investment into the park, and the second-hand nature of many of the parks attractions, I think we'd have seen Paramount \ Cedar rotate some rides around (Six Flags style) and we'd have seen some newer attractions move around a bit. I think if Paramount had been willing to take the park on, it would still be standing today, most likely under the cedar fair brand..

  3. Hi @Flynn_Smith, Here are the CASA Regulations. Dreamworld / White Water World * As long as you launch from public land you are able to fly the drone over dreamworld. * No higher than 150ft or 45m * If recreational and no license you must have the UAV within eye sight. * Dreamworld Tower is classified as a local landmark and you must keep a 500m radius around it. Movie World * As long as you launch from public land you are able to fly the drone over Movieworld. * No higher than 150ft or 45m * If recreational and no license you must have the UAV within eye sight. * Movieworld borders a no fly zone so be careful where you fly! Wet'n'Wild * As long as you launch from public land you are able to fly the drone over Wet'n'Wild. * No higher than 150ft or 45m * If recreational and no license you must have the UAV within eye sight. * VFR aircraft operate within the airspace so you also need to be on the lookout and give aircraft right of way. SeaWorld * Personally I would not fly there * The app has not been updated since the new heli port was built * Below is the VTC Chart for pilots which gives most a clear indication if you know how to read it. * In other words, DO NOT FLY THERE!!! In regards to when the parks are operating, you must keep 150m away from the operational equipment (i.e. the rides).

  4. The land between entertainment drive and the physical track of rivals is only just bigger than 30 metres. I believe the CASA regulations require the drone to be at least 30 metres away from other persons. Theres no practical way you could be within that guideline in that space given the public footpath and roadway along that edge. The simplest answer is exactly what Slick said above, but if its really that important to you - contact the parks to seek permission.
