Take Flight to Buzz Lightyear

One of the most noticeable differences between 1996's The Walt Disney World Explorer and the 1998 Second Edition of the computer program is the Tomorrowland attraction Take Flight (Delta Dreamflight) being replaced by Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin. Take Flight/Delta Dreamflight was a dark ride featuring the history of flight that replaced the similar If You Had Wings (June 5, 1972 to January 3, 1989) and operated from June 23, 1989, to January 5, 1998. Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin, a shooting gallery dark ride based on Disney/Pixar's Toy Story franchise, soft opened on October 7, 1998 (likely a few months after the Second Edition's release, since only concept art is shown here), then officially opened on November 3, 1998, still operating to this day. In The WDW Explorer, the attraction switch required swapping the hotspot's design on the Tomorrowland screen from a propeller airplane on a cloud to Buzz Lightyear blasting off with smoke behind him. Additionally, the upper-left corner of the Tomorrowland screen shows that the land was renamed from "New Tomorrowland" (reflecting a major renovation it had in 1994) back to its original name. (Hettie Lynne Hurtes's narration for the area still called it "New Tomorrowland", though.)
