Flashback will also be torn down for scrap metal in 2015. Six Flags Magic Mountain wants to keep the coaster record for as long as their open, so in 2015, along with Revolution, they will be town down for scrap metal. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.171.166.241 (talk • contribs) Nov 21, 2006 03:15:01

Well, it's 2007, flashback is gone but the park is still open.70.81.249.110 15:53, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Gone? I was in Magic Mountain under a week ago and didn't notice this coaster, but was in the water park the next day and it's still there, honest :-) Rawling4851 17:55, 22 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Z-Force a deadly force?

Back when it was Z-Force, didn't this roller coaster cause a number of injuries back in Georgia? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.191.254.99 (talk) 15:45, 10 February 2007 (UTC).[reply]

My sister did say it had an accident when it was at Great America but the ride accidents site doesnt say anything. I HAVE heard though that it has always been rough as hell.--[jonrev] 22:23, 10 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:57971107.zforce.jpg

Image:57971107.zforce.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

File:57971107.zforce.jpg again

It's hard to believe that with all the millions of people who visited the park while this ride was there not one of them took a picture of this and will place it in the public domain. This image is certainly replaceable and doesn't belong on Wikipedia. So I've nominated it for deletion. Angus McLellan (Talk) 19:58, 12 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Refocus as Space Diver article

Any objections to me moving this article to Space Diver and focusing it on ride model rather than just the installation at Magic Mountain? Themeparkgc Talk 02:17, 31 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Very late response here but it would probably work better to have a Space Diver article if there is enough information on the model that isn't relevant to Flashback itself.Xtreme2000 (talk) 22:14, 11 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
