Yeah, that seems more circumstantial than some sort of major business strategy to me.
I lamented the loss of the six pack for Bonnie replacement, but honestly, its not the end of the world if they were to just replace it with say a Skytrac fixed grip.
If it were my money, I'd bump the Jet to a fixed grip quad. Replace the Bonnie with another fixed grip quad. Then when the Flyer shits the bed, split it into two lifts, both fixed grip quads, one terminating right around the intersection of Upper Goat Run and Staircase / Northwest Passage and then another starting around the intersection of Ullrs Dream and Kokomo that terminates where the Flyer currently tops out. That is probably the best course of action in regards to managing wind holds and uphill capacity. Tram has to stay and be replaced eventually though for a signature lift if you are going the whole non-high speed route.
