Ok, so we're saying it's a mid-line station with a turn... not two terminus. That was the part I was missing. It's been over 18months... stuff has fallen out of the FIFO buffer long long ago
Correct.

A smart system would resolve this. Adding and removing gondolas on demand by connecting a user app. Or using color coded gondolas for specific destinations and routes.
Yes, but it would create a new set of problems and challenges.

Agreed. But the benefits are cool to think about.

That's a big mesh area. Hmm sideways rain
never happens in Florida. Add drowning in the gondola to the list.

It was already on the list for those that fell into the Hourglass Lake and survived the gators.

Walked by there twice today and the answer is nope it’s off to the side. If you want to look for it and let it bother you then it could but otherwise just walking around, nope.

Think bioreconstruct is overreaching there. You could just be looking at the backside of the mesh-style graphic covering.
I figured. I don’t expect Disney to actually try with any of its websites.

That's not the way to looks to the eye.

What, your eyes aren't telephoto lenses?
No, it's a window. Look at the full-size image here: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D0pZZb4W0AAZDOU.jpg
But I expect there's glass there, too -- either flip-out or sliding. The screen would be to keep body parts and foreign objects inside the cabin. IIRC, it was also visible from the outside in one of the early photos of the gondola on a truck.
You can also clearly see 2 vent windows on the left end in this photo, as well as what appear to be the latches silhouetted in front of the corner post.

I don't agree with your conclusions at all.
What the horizontal elements seen in front of the yellow corner piece.. dunno yet.

Thank you! Flat will make all the difference in the world. My cart wouldn't have had the space for a 180 degree turn but if I had to reverse out this would have been much easier. Appreciate the photos.
If you will indulge me for a moment....
I realize the photo is zoom'd and the debate if the cable could be seen with the naked eye. Me, I can see powerlines for blocks (my only comparison up North here.) Even if I couldn't see the cable behind France and and Morocco (possibly) at first Blush I'm having to believe I could see gondola hanging from the cables? No? Yes? If I can see Bald Eagles Flying above the Swan and Dolphin I'm hard pressed to believe I could not see a dangling Gondola from a cable.
Even without the zoom Tower has been visible to the naked eye.
Are all of those trees that go deep into the Morocco pavilion foot print on each side still all there to mask the gondolas? A real old photo (DFB) but it showed how deep the mature trees are (or were) back there. If the trees are still there could they camouflage?
So curious as to their plans to mask.
Of course.
