On that sheet it said that Copper had installed an enclosed poma HSQ, what lift is that?

It was an error actually. I guess sam figured since the Heron double before that had bubbles on it, that the new American Eagle would too, so SAM included it as having bubbles, but they were never installed. There are a lot of errors with SAM's lift construction survey, but I try to find and fix them, then publish that info on this site.

Cameron, you said the bubbles were never installed. Did they buy them, and then think better of installing them, or were they never bought in the first place?

I guess they were never bought in the first place. I was going through an old SAM magazine showing the American Eagle being constructed and after construction and they never had them on the lift. But maybe Copper did have a bid originally to have bubbles on the lift but in the end, decided not to.

Isn't it weird that were is not a single POMA HSQ or HSS that has bubbles here in North America.

I see them on a lot of the Poma high-speed lifts over in Europe and Pomagroup.com has a diagram of its bubble design and stuff.

Anyway, were going :offtopic: now.
