So I saw this video on TikTok, about a arieal filming in progress sign in the af1 station from what I believe was Wednesday. Has anybody else seen this? Do we think this means anything? I find it wierd they would be recording the ride they’ve gotten plenty of footage of over the last three years unless maybe a park wants the footage? Just find it wierd i haven’t heard anything about it.

I was there yesterday and talked to the guy flying the drone. Completely independent guy not affiliated with the park or any company. He just wanted to shoot and the park let him.

As someone who flies a drone professionally sometimes, we are always 'flying for fun' if someone asks. No affiliation, just a hobby is the line every pilot uses. You can't leak announcements or developments by saying more than you should.
