The whold thing is very reminiscent of the old Disneyland Astro Jets; the lighted center column is especially cool.

I had no idea this particular Roto-jet was from Freedomland U.S.A. Very cool fact. The lights on the ride vehicles and centerpiece and the red and yellow paint scheme are wonderful. Thanks, Andrew.
I didn't know either until I looked it up!
Hooray - a Freedomland survivor in the 21st Century! The two I knew at Cedar Point - San Francisco Earthquake and Buccaneer (which was creatively-renamed "The Pirate Ride") - were removed in 1985 and 1996.
Yes! The third of the Freedomland darkrides, called Earthquake, was at my hometown park, Kennywood, until the late 1960s. It then went to a park in New York, where it operated until 2002.
Starship America at Hershey was once like this, they updated it sometime in the 1980's to its current ride vehicles.
