Record-breaking thrill ride on I-Drive moves closer to reality

'Starflyer' to be built in Orlando tourist district

ORLANDO, Fla. – A record-breaking thrill ride on International Drive in Orlando is a step closer to reality.

Orange County's review committee on Wednesday approved the world's tallest swing attraction, known as the "Starflyer."

Plans for the 420-foot swing were introduced in November 2014.

Developer Chuck Whittall said construction could begin on the attraction in March. The ride could open a few months later, he said.
