1990s RG Mitchell Coin Operated Aeroplane Kiddie Ride - Jimbo and the Jet Set

Описание: Filmed at Merrivale Model Village, Great Yarmouth on June 9th 2021.

Jimbo ride was released by RG Mitchell of Skegness in 1993, their first ever ride design to be based on a TV character. It became one of their most popular rides and could be seen outside many arcades and supermarkets at the time.

Unfortunately, the soundboard on this ride was damaged and made a loud "crackling" noise throughout. Hopefully I will find a better Jimbo to film at some point, although he is sadly becoming rarer every year.
