In Soarin', the ride system is a Walt Disney Imagineering-developed motion-based technology, the original ride inception was based on an erector set model created by Imagineer Mark Sumner. One million pounds of steel provides the ride structure and 37 tons are lifted during each ride cycle.

I saw Mr. Sumner and his design model on one of the Disney specials. Quite a brilliant idea!
