Tomorrowland Transit Authority Dioramas
If You Had Wings had diorama windows that allowed riders on the Tomorrowland Transit Authority to look down into the ride. When If You Had Wings was replaced with Delta Dreamflight, the dioramas on the Tomorrowland Transit Authority changed. One diorama window was removed in the process:
- The first window was replaced with backlit panels depicting the ride's barnstormer scene.
- The second window looked into the Parisian Excursion scene, from a viewpoint which heavily distorted the tableau's forced perspective.
- The third window would have had riders looking directly into an extremely bright light and so was completely obscured with plywood and black fabric.

Famous quotes containing the words transit and/or authority:
“My esoteric doctrine, is that if you entertain any doubt, it is safest to take the unpopular side in the first instance. Transit from the unpopular, is easy ... but from the popular to the unpopular is so steep and rugged that it is impossible to maintain it.”
—William Lamb Melbourne, 2nd Viscount (1779–1848)
“Establishing limits, structure, rules, and expectations takes self-confidence on the part of parents. Parents need to recognize that they are the legitimate authority figures in their households and feel secure in that role.”
—Karen Levine (20th century)
