Jet Star is a travelling steel roller coaster ownd by French showman James Montalétang.
History
The roller coaster began operation in 1969 at Prater in Austria. It closed in 1993 and subsequently reopened at Holly Park in Échemiré, Pays de la Loire, France in July 2001. It closed with the park after the 2014 season. After a refurbishment, the coaster now travels.
