Complete List[edit]

Hi, not sure if the list of Installments is meant to be a complete list or not. If so, the Gruenwaldkopf and Plattenkar Lifts in Obertauern also operate mixed chair and gondola. The former constantly having gondolas all winter AFAIK (and have seen myself), the latter mainly only during times of very friendly weather, transporting guests and goods to the bar at the top of the lift.

Dubious[edit]

Wind tolerance of gondolas and chairs[edit]

There are unsourced sentences saying “Gondolas are heavier and have lower wind tolerance” and “Chairs are lighter and can be operated in higher winds”. Aside from the claim that gondolas are heavier and chairs are lighter, it is my understanding that heavier objects (relative to their surface area) have superior stability in the wind, hence why many lifts in windy locations carry weight ballast. I have not yet found sources for this. Sr88, talk. 22:20, 3 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I guess the much larger wind facing surface area of a gondola relative to a chairlift would mean your point and the sentence in the article don't really contradict each other. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.12.56.97 (talk) 14:04, 14 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
