Jumbo Jet (Six Flags Great Adventure)

Jumbo Jet was a prefabricated steel roller coaster located within the Fun Fair section of Great Adventure in Jackson, New Jersey.

[2] Unlike typical chain lifted or launched roller coasters, this model reached the first drop by way of small wheel motors that drove it up the incline of a helix.

[4] Contemporary press accounts quote Great Adventure Vice President of Operations Robert Minick as saying that Jumbo Jet was "the largest ready-made roller coaster that [could] be bought".

[5] The coaster was leased from Willy Miller's Continental Park Attractions, along with several other rides in the Fun Fair section.

[6] Although Roller Coaster DataBase once proposed that it might be the Jumbo Jet at Morey's Piers,[8][9] evidence exists that the latter attraction was in fact purchased in Germany.
