Skyline Attractions fabricated a new gondola for the popular Steampunk Balloon observation attraction at Parakeet Pete’s in Branson, Missouri, USA. The new gondola resembles a large bird cage and offers patrons two ways to experience the attraction: standing inside the cage, with a glass-bottom floor, or secured on the outside in one of eight seats for a more thrilling experience. We also provided design and engineering services for an improved restraint system on the outside seats.
