Here’s how Stunt Pilot, Silverwood’s first new roller coaster in 13 years, is a unique offering

The ride is the third of its kind in the world. Known as a single-rail Raptor coaster, "Stunt Pilot" takes a single-line train of 10 on a 60-second, breakneck tour intended to mimic the air shows that once filled the skies above the North Idaho amusement park. The ride opens to the public Saturday at a ribbon-cutting, when 10 charity bidders will receive the first public spin on the attraction that's the product of good timing, said Silverwood owner Gary Norton.
