    2017. Likely to be shortened this year and become a beginner lift. Operating fulltime in 2024.

      Why it last operated in 2017 and why it being shortened? There already is a parallel beginner lift.

        I heard 6 will be removed. The idea is that they do not need both lifts and a triple is better for lessons than a double.

        I wouldn’t be surprised if 12 is removed as well.
