What action must be taken if one broken wire is found during the daily inspection of the launch cable?

The appropriate action when a broken wire is found during the daily inspection of the launch cable is to repair or replace the launch cable. The integrity of the launch cable is critical for the safe operation of the Skycoaster. A broken wire indicates that the cable may have compromised strength and could pose significant safety hazards if the Skycoaster is operated in this condition.

Addressing the issue promptly ensures that the safety of patrons and staff is maintained. Regular inspections are essential, but when a defect like a broken wire is identified, immediate action is necessary to prevent any potential accidents or failures during operation. Hence, repairing or replacing the launch cable is the only responsible course of action to ensure the continuous safety and reliability of the equipment.

Continuing operations without concern or merely monitoring the cable until the next inspection could lead to dangerous situations, while increasing the inspection frequency would not resolve the immediate risk presented by the compromised cable.
