S'pore Flyer resumes operations after 2-day closure due to air-con glitch

The Singapore Flyer - the world's largest observation wheel - resumed operations at 2pm Tuesday.

The Flyer was closed on Sunday afternoon at 1pm after one of its electrical cables supplying power to the air-conditioning systems was struck by lightning.

Thereafter, the management evacuated the some 200 passengers and stopped the wheel.

The Singapore Flyer says the air-conditioning repair works have now been completed.

It says the Flyer also has a lightning protection system.
