Brilliant set of videos, - well done. I don't think I have seen so many cranes in use on one fairground before, - (and that is without all their own "lorry mounted" ones), - the cost must be considerable. What is the average charge on one of the 'big' rides and how long does a "go" last.?
Christopher Lovelock I don’t think that the costs are that high. The 2 rollercoasters and the Around The World use the same crane, on the Dutch faircircuit nearly everybody knows each other, so such things can be arranged easily. And the family Buwalda (from the rollercoaster) have their own crane, which already is cheaper than renting one! Same thing goes for the log flume and the View Tower. The log flume does fairs all over Germany, so they can afford their own crane. The view tower was build by the owner, who also has their own crane!
