Other Facts (PCW Junkies Comments):
Top Gun the Jet Coaster made its debut as the ninth roller coaster for the start of the 1995 season.  Top Gun was the first major attraction added to the park after the Paramount name was added to the front of Canada's Wonderland.

Wonderland was one of the first parks to install the new Vekoma Suspended Looping Coasters (SLC). Top Gun is a popular name for a roller coaster at other Paramount parks but they are all different types of coasters. Zuma's Flume  once occupied the space that is now home to Top Gun. Giving Top Gun the distinction of being one of the first rides to displace an original 1981 attraction.
