History
It was the only operating roller coaster with an inversion in the state of Indiana until 2008 when Steel Hawg opened at Indiana Beach. It was also notable for formerly using an elevator to transport passengers to the loading platform. Afterburner is the original prototype of Arrow Development's "Launched Loop" shuttle style coaster.
From 1977 to 1990, it was known as "Zoomerang", first at Circus World, then at its short-lived replacement, Boardwalk and Baseball. Both parks were located in Haines City, Florida.
The Afterburner was taken down in February 2017.
gollark: Turtles can craft things, and I have an item storage system done, so if I can convert* list of stored items* recipe dump* desired itemto* list of crafting steps* list of required inputsthen it's fine.
gollark: In the specific case of "only one recipe per item", it is, I think.
gollark: And it only *shows one crafting step*, so it's not much good.
gollark: Also, it's JEI now.
gollark: Yes, but that's manual.
