Superman: Ultimate Flight is a steel Premier Rides roller coaster at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom in Vallejo, California. It opened to the public on June 30, 2012. It is not to be confused with Superman: Ultimate Flight, a B&M steel flying roller coaster at three other Six Flags parks.
Superman: Ultimate Flight launches out of the station rising up halfway up the first twist. It then returns backwards through the station into the non-inverting loop. Returning forwards and accelerating riders to a top speed of 62 miles per hour (100 km/h). It then travels up to a height of 150 feet (46 m) where it completes a heartline roll (ranking it among the tallest inversions in the world) before exiting in a second non-inverting half-loop at 133 feet (41 m). It then enters the second twist and returns back to the station. The ride can be compared to several of Maurer Söhne's X-Coasters. The non-inverting loop element was previously only found in two of the company's X-Car roller coasters prior to Premier Rides' installation of Superman: Ultimate Flight. Additionally, the ride bears several similarities to the SkyLoop model including design, height and speed.On speakers outside the attraction entrance, John Williams' score is played in a loop.
