The Flying School roller coaster at Legoland Florida will make its final flight on Aug. 16, which not coincidentally is also National Roller Coaster Day.
The steel, inverted coaster has been in operation since 2004 when the Winter Haven theme park was known as Cypress Gardens. It was named Swamp Thing in the Cypress Gardens days.

“One of the coasters original to Cypress Gardens Adventure Park, the inverted, steel coaster allows guests to take flight into the Legoland skies,” the park announced. “This summer, it soars through the clouds one last time to make way for future awesomeness.”
To help mark the end of the coaster’s run, Legoland is offering a limited-time 2-day, 2-park pass for Florida residents through Aug. 31. The pass is $99. Discounts are also available at Legoland hotels.
