Non Disney "Dumbo" rides

I was just thinking (dont worry, I dont do it too often) about "family" flat rides that have water effects and I of course thought of One Fish Two Fish at IOA. Then that lead me to the tangent (please NO MORE MATH JOKES!) that "Dumbo" type rides seem to be lacking outside of Disney properties. In fact I can only think of two: "Fish" @ IOA and some ride @ HERSHEYPARK (name escapes me starship somthing?). Are there any others? Disney seems to think that they are great (like every park has a version) so why not other chains/parks?

The Aladdin ride at MK, is essentially a deifferently themed Dumbo, with camels that squirt you. Or One Fish with carpets instead of Fish. I know that doesn't answer your question really, but whatever.

Well, for one thing, the ride is boring as hell, so I'm glad not a lot of parks have them outside of WDW.

For another, WDW has about 5 variations of the ride on property. It gets quite annoying to see the same ride themed differently everywhere.

Kennywood has a spin around dumbo ride in kiddieland.

The Great Escape has one called get this Jumbo.

There's one at Canobie Lake Park. I don't remember the name though.

Well, here in the UK, we are certainly not lacking in them! Most small and big parks here have versions, though sometimes not quite on the same scale.

The most similar is at Chessington World of Adventures, where the "Flying Jumbo's" feature... Despite being the same size as the Disney ride, they have the annoying feature of only getting half-height if there is an adult on board! Cheaper Hydrholics I suppose...

Don't forget the Astro Orbiters at the Magic Kingdom.

I recall Dorney Park had one by Little Lazer.

Let me attempt the Dumbo style rides Disney has, I'll through in the Astro Orbiter's for kicks, this is only in the US, I know BOTH Paris parks have them, and the Japan parks probibly do to.

Disneyland resort,
Dumbo, Astro Orbiter, DCA has a charswing, but dunno if that should count, but Golden Zepher, is a lot like a Dumbo ride.

WDW
Dumbo, Astro Orbiter, Aladdin, Trisartops Spin!

Canobie Lake has Mini Dinos which is basically the same thing.

Knoebel's has a Dumbo-like ride, exect it doesn't have water effects.

Silverwood Theme Park in Idaho has one.I took my grandaughter on it while I was taking a break from the coasters.No water effects on it,though.Nature was providing the water effects at the time as it was raining.

I can fix anything.....where is the duct tape?

Here's an obscure one, Bushkill Park has a "Flying Elephant" ride. Not sure how similar it is to Disney's though, never rode it at Disney.

I started out with nothing and still have most of it left.
