Bill, I'm biased because my wife works for Disney and with a couple of kids we go there quite a bit. "Soaring over California" is a great ride. It's a flight simulator placed in an IMAX theatre, so the visuals are very effective. Additionally when you fly over orange trees, you get an orange scent in the air, or an ocean scent when you are along the coast.
When you are in line you are in a flying museum of California pioneers, including Paul MacCready of Aeroenvironment, Chuck Yeager, Douglas of McDonnel Douglas, etc. It's well done. There also is a classic Cessna 195 outside. What a great design! JE -- Erickson Architects John R.
