“LAS VEGAS STRIP TO GET 500 FOOT FERRIS WHEEL!!”
Yeahhh, now I can do 10 jager bombs, hop on the Skyvue Las Vegas Super Wheel then throwup my dinner all over the ride; after eloping with the 60yr old prostitute I met at the Hotel 8 bar.
A developer’s plan to put a 500-foot observation wheel attraction on the Las Vegas Strip won’t hamper operations at nearby McCarran International Airport, the Federal Aviation Administration said.
The agency’s obstruction evaluation group told developer Howard Bulloch of Compass Investments that it expected the rotating wheel with 40 passenger gondolas won’t affect aircraft or airport facilities. The wheel will be about as tall as two nearby casinos, and will be more than a half-mile from an airport runway, the FAA said in its note.

Bulloch introduced the plans for the Skyvue Las Vegas Super Wheel on Monday during a press conference at the site across Las Vegas Boulevard from the Mandalay Bay hotel-casino.The Ferris-style wheel is part of a $100 million privately funded development that is scheduled to open in 2013. Plans also include a roller coaster, retail stores and restaurants.
