Still so much scaffolding....
I would hope so, considering all it is, is a so Soarin clone and a dark water ride, but then again Disney seems to have a problem with getting floating things to work ala ROL still not being ready yet. Maybe they have better luck with floating mountains.

I see what you are saying and I think you are correct about that being the location for the beverage spot (Pongu Pongu). Being near the main dining but not part of it makes some sense, I suppose.
It does make me wonder what is the large building attached to Pongu Pongu. Did we establish that it is the main gift shop (Windtraders)? I wonder because it does seem plausible that the exit from FoP might force you through that building for the token "after ride shopping".
I can't tell, but I'm still wondering if there is any sort of "walk through" like the animal trails in other lands in this park. I hope there is, though I suppose the argument could be made that the entire land is a "walk through attraction".
And I wonder were the possible "drum circle" show might be?
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am left totally speechless. These aerial photos are truly incredible! OMG, they are so crystal clear and there is so much detail. Like, I can get lost in this photo for hours.
Disney has really outdone themselves with Avatarland. There is nothing else in the world like it! Sigh. I need to know more so I can plan a trip to see this spectacular land.

Yeah, technical problems are the wildcard.

New here and usually lurk but these photos are incredible, I had to register to post this.
Does anyone think these may be the ride vehicles for the flight ride? Really looks like something you could sit on and hold handle bars, similar to the sketches shared a while back. Specifically the top 'thing' that looks like a carousel horse.

It's hard to tell what those are, but if they were ride vehicle I don't know why they would be on top of that roof.

I though that at first but then it looks like they have added a handrail and what could possibly be steps up to it. Maybe it's being used as a makeshift Workspace. Very strange place to work though granted.
For ease of reference this is the sketch from someone at a recent Disney presentation.

If these rides are testing I don't know why those would be ride vehicles on top of the roof of what is assumed to be queue space.

That still wouldn't make sense for why ride vehicles would be on top of that structure. My guess is they are not ride vehicles but theming elements.Maybe the test didn't go too well
agreed

Yeah, you're probably right. Can't wait to find out...

And that is what I am hearing they may be...plus we've already seen the NRJ ride vehicles so definitely are not them

It would if the ride vehicles went out of control on flew onto the roof. We are flying on the back of banshees right?
