Since I was bored on my last day of Easter vacation, I did a little bit of searching and came across this-http://rcdb.com/installationdetail1500.htm.
I have never heard anything about this floorless B&M. It doesn't seem to be a clone. Does anyone have any more information or pictures of this coaster. The park also seems to have a mini-hyper coaster by B&M. The floorless coaster doesn't seem to be on the list of coasters on this site.

If the shoe fits, find another one.

Ive heard of this one....this one is a clone of Batman Dark Knight except for the immelman.
Actually they are almost completely different. For starters, this one has a straight first drop.

just so you know, the B&M dive machine at that park isnt called G5 anymore, it is now called "the flying submarine", and the floorless used to be called "crazy flying coaster", but is now called "Impulse flying coaster" or IFC for short. but remember this, the literal translation of flying is actually speed or something, so they arent as funny as they sound, maybe except for "speed submarine"!!

Actually, G5, or as I refuse to call it "The Flying Submarine" does have the underground sections, just not nearly as much as Oblivion. I wish I had a photo to show you, but on this one the drop starts levelling out before it hits the tunneled section, and the heavily banked turn is sticking way out off the ground.
As for its name, it is quite simple. As you all probably know, translations from Asian languages can be very sketchy at times. Flying as said earlier would mean speed or the sense of moving around doing manouvers in the sky as such. Submarine would simply mean underground or something along those lines due to the tunneled section.

So what if the best coaster in Australia is a second hand Arrow?

Either way, no matter where the ride is, I am still suprised that it isn't well known. Especially since its been in operation only since 2001 and that it was made by B&M.

If your really evil in this life, do you come back as toilet paper????
This coaster is not a clone of any other coaster, nor has it been cloned.
Now back to our regularly scheduled broadcast.

Wildfire has an immleman, a loop, a cobra roll, and a finale corkscrew.
Crazy Flying Coaster has a loop, immleman and interlocking corkscrews. They don't sound like clones to me.
