I thought I'd share this picture I found looking through my dad's old family pictures. The Rocket Jets and the People Mover are there. This was in the 80s. Sorry some of it got cut off.
Back when the world made sense. - handdmom

It's there. I have another picture with the Sky way, submarines and the motor boat cruise in it. - CherryTreeLane 456.6 #272 10:21AM
Wait, not the sky way isn't in that picture, but I have pictures of it from that trip. - CherryTreeLane 456.6 #272 10:51AM
Most likely gone. The skyway was built early on in the parks history - bheuett

So are all the tracks still there for the people mover? Or is it just the outside? And if they're still there which attractions would we be riding through? I remember my favorite part was going through the super fast tunnel that went like .5 miles an hour - Philliprocks

They are there, but badly damaged and aging. I think that some sections have been removed/altered where they went through other attractions (the star tours 2.0 for sure I know) - Sarafina 400.7 #338 11:02AM
awww great picture. I'm sad I missed the peoplemover and the rocket jets up high. I bet that really made you feel like you were flying through the air! - Sarafina

I wasn't old enough to have complete memories of this, but I do remember seeing the people mover and sky way. I kinda wish I was able to ride them. Guess I'll never know what it was like :( - DarksidePooh

I remember the rockets (not sure of the attraction's name unless it's astro orbiter), but I don't think I was ever brave enough to go on them. I loved the people movers because I could experience what space mountain was like before I went on it for the first time. - HasAnyoneSeenMyGlassSlipper

Thanks for sharing this is a very cool shot. Brings back alot of memories of finally being able to run around the park with my friends. - sstarlight

Brings back memories when they used to have company parties after hours & we would get on people mover to nap. We were young teenagers & felt so grown up being up late! - ShariRenee 1576.2 #51 9:35PM
Wow, never realized they were up this high. Love seeing old pics of the attractions. - madsdad
