Interesting to note there was a slilght accident when testing the new Vanoise Express téléphérique at les Arcs, which were put down to 'Human Error' and not any problem with the design or conception. Funny, that, as I thought it was designed to be completely fail-safe, self regulating etc.... -- Ace (brucedotrogers a.t rochedotcom) Ski Club of Great Britain - http://www.skiclub.co.uk All opinions expressed are personal and in no way represent those of the Ski Club. IIRC, the article I read said something about it operating in "maintenance mode". Must be a fancy phrase for "manual"... |

Yes, it does make one wonder about the operator!!! I do hope it has some fail-safe device to keep a single operator from switching it into "manual" by himself... |

They should employ a big dog to bite the man if he touches any of the controls. Regards Rob -- Posted via Mailgate.ORG Server - http://www.Mailgate.ORG |
