The London Eye: Structure of the London Eye

The above photograph is showing the London Eye straight on, so that you can get a good idea of how it is constructed, from this viewpoint, you can see all the interconnecting steel rods that make sure the there's no lag in the turning of the wheel and you can also see the pods along side the supporting A frame.
The image above is taken from inside a pod on the London Eye while on a "flight".
This is a photograph of an empty pod, so you can see the dimensions, and roughly what size each pod on the London Eye actually is, also, from this angle you get a good idea of the layout and what materials were used where.
