I'd like to see more than one attraction in the space. Maybe a family coaster (an actual Triwizard Tournament, Ford Anglia or Azkaban would all be good choices) and the Great Hall, too (if they're willing to relocate/demo Hippogriff).DC isn't dueling anymore and we can all agree that a forbidden forest dark ride should be the best option.
Why a wing coaster tho?I imagine it would be 'more' than Gringotts, most likely organic rather than screen based. A wing coaster with dark ride elements would be nice.
Sense of freedom, you are completely off the track, so it would be ideal for this. Also, I heard overall wing coaster are more tame, so it might appeal to a larger group of people, inverts on the other hand have more force (which is why personally I love them the best). Flying coaster tend to be put people off as well, though I have always entertained the idea of a launched flyer set to Jurrasic World. Anyway, with a wing coaster you'd just have a lot of freedom to zip through the Forbidden Forest, the sensation would be similar to the benches in Forbidden Journey.Why a wing coaster tho?

Slightly off topic, but the train wreck that is Fast and Furious is doing some good by hiding a stretch of the Hogwarts Express in USF.Agreed, they did what they could THEME wise (don't kill me epcyc) when it was just Hogsmeade. With the HE came some unsightly sights.
One of the drawbacks to Wing coasters is a relatively slower load/unload time than a traditional B&M. With the track and car between the seats, you have to get off the ride the same side as you get on. So you have to wait for the previous riders to clear before the next set can get on. Unlike a normal B&M where you exit the opposite side that you get on and as soon as they unlock the seats, they can open the gates for the next riders. Or you can create separate load and unload stations, but that, to me at least, means capacity isn't as efficient as it could be. Neither means that they won't do a Wing, but I tend to think they won't. I think if its a coaster at all, it'll be something more accessible and won't have inversions.
I wonder if B&M has plans for a SFX type coaster...We know how Universal likes to be in front of everyone on ride techTo add to this slightly. B&M and Universal have a good history, they're massive people eaters, it can be themed well and it will be the only one in Orlando.
There are a couple of scenes that they didn't include in the ride..I wouldn't mind seeing Harry and Ron flying around in the Ford Angela..Maybe a Minotaur and another run in with dementors..And of course they could create creatures specifically for the attraction that we haven't seen yet..It sucks they're so limited with what they can even use at this point. In the books their is only hogsmead, hogwarts, and the forest in that are. The only thing that makes sense in that plot is something forbidden forest of course. And i don't get the hate for a family friendly attraction. I love the thrill rides but I'm all for a hp themed haunted mansion. But again the best elements from the forest are already used in FJ so I have a hard time believing DC is being replaced. But you guys know more than me so we'll see
