The view from above the Niagara Whirlpool of the Jet boats and the Spanish Aero Car.

The Spanish Aero Car, also known as the Whirlpool Aero Car, is a cable car located in Niagara Falls, Ontario. It was designed by Spanish engineer Leonardo Torres Quevedo and has been in operation since 1916. The cable car is suspended from six sturdy cables and offers a wonderful view of the Niagara River Whirlpool, formed at the end of the rapids where the gorge turns abruptly to the northeast and the river escapes through the narrowest channel in the gorge. Riders can see the rapids, the Whirlpool, the Gorge, the hydro-electric plants down the river, as the aerial car travels safely between two different points on the Canadian shore of the Niagara River over the spectacular whirlpool. The system uses one car that carries 35 standing passengers over a one-kilometre trip. The Aero Car has been upgraded several times since 1916 (in 1961, 1967, and 1984).

"The Freedom Boat engines have arrived! πŸŒ€πŸŒŠπŸš€ The Freedom Boat is powered by Sweden's #Scania DI 13-072M Turbo-Diesel Engines. The triple engine configuration, with each engine bringing 670 horsepower to the party, round out the Freedom Boat's total horsepower to 2010 total horsepower! 😱🐎"
