"Color takes flight and wrap a rainbow around World Showcase in this new daytime show at Epcot Center that boasts the world's largest daytime fireworks display. Boats, kites, paraplanes, hang gliders, fireworks and giant balloons encirle the park's lagoon and soar above the park in the extravaganza.

Explosive rainbow colors fill the daytime sky at Epcot Center during presentations of "Surprise in the Skies" each Saturday through Wednesday. Vivid fireworks in reds, blues and greens announce a show featuring boats with multicolored flags which pull six colorful delta-wing kits into the air, where they are joined by paraplanes flying the colors of Epcot Center's World Showcase nations.

Patriotic music introduces a red, white and blue parapale and similarly colored pyrotechnics. The squadron of paraplanes joins in the display of red, white and blue colors." (WDW 20th Anniversary News Press Releases, 1991)

"These are some of our diamond kite trains coming out of their launch boxes at Mexico beach. There were 12 of these trains that launched simultaneously." Bruce W. Flora
