LOL, I was just going to post how I see so many people leaning up against them.

What?!? Everything is so visible! They don't hide anything! I can clearly see a mess from my drone! (Ladder was too much work, I'd have to walk all the way around to the bypass). 
Yeah, everyone oohs and aahs about the Christmas lights on the Castle but never stop to think how they got there and how long it takes to put them up and take them down....

In a perfect world, it WOULD be nice to see crane hidden better during hours or driven off park, but if they make "quick work" of it, can't complain. If we want updates and seasonal displays we have to concede that SOME things will be visible on occasion.
Maybe paint the crane arm to match the castle color scheme?

... Or could maybe disguise the crane to look like a magic wand? Hmm...

Tink would have to go from the tower in the Castle to crane to the Terrace roof. Otherwise the poor CM would have to climb up the crane long before dark. Imagine if he had to answer nature's call? And I bet that costume with all the lights and the harness isn't light.
Not sure I'd want to be the supervisor who has to ask someone who is already willing to fly on a zip line in the dark at that height with fire works starting to go off to climb a crane that has got to be at least 100 feet in the air - the Castle is 189 feet high. "Bob, we've got a new addition to Tink's flight at the beginning of Wishes. We thought since the crane is up to put the lights on the Castle, Tink will fly from the CRANE to the Terrace Roof. Which means you need to climb up a 125' crane BEFORE dark (can't have the kids seeing that a guy plays Tink) in full costume. You okay with this?"
Addition: I think the zip line for safety purposes needs to be anchored at both ends to something fixed, not a moveable crane...

Agreed. How long do you think it will be before they have an AA perform the "flight"? Could program the wave wand motion into the automaton.

In some ways, I'm surprised it hasn't happened already
But then there wouldn't be pages of discussion on WDWMagic speculating on the gender of the CM playing Tink....

AA doesn't have to be asexual...
Then Tink can always be a girl.

Next you're gonna tell me Peter Pan is gonna be male?!
Until the AA breaks down, midflight. Imagine the discussion on THAT.....
Aren't boys male or did I miss something in my biology class.... Aren't they called the Lost Boys for a reason?
