Hello, everyboby. I'm Jérémy, I'm french and I'm 43 years old. Sorry for my english. I have recently bought a pinball which name is "Flying pinball" by Gottlieb. Its condition is good, and I'm restoring it like I can do. My problem is that I don'tunderstand the way to use the "chain reaction booster ball" in the middle of the playfield. I have seen some pictures and videos where the balls are staying in the middle game and that the aim is to put the five balls on the same side. But the balls fall

"Old pinballers never die, they just flip out."
Here's a picture from a Gottlieb Sunset that has the same captive ball feature and maybe a better view. Found by "Advanced Search" for
"captive balls" in notable features field.
https://www.ipdb.org/showpic.pl?id=2422&picno=30012
Steve Young at Pinall Resource (http://www.pbresource.com) would be the person to check with to see if the part is available. International
shipping may be expensive though.
There are several collectors shown on the "Mr. Pinball" site that have Flying Circus. www.mrpinball.com
Search the collector register for "flying circus" in the "Machine in collection" field.

Don't be alarmed that www.mrpinball.com redirects to http://user.xmission.com/~daina/pinball.html
Try emailing that group to see if anyone can help with a picture of that part.
Welcome to pinball and RGP,
