A generalized model with bifurcations associated with blue sky catastrophes is introduced. Depending on an integer index m, different kinds of attractors arise, including those associated with quasi-periodic oscillations and with hyperbolic chaos. Verification of the hyperbolicity is provided based on statistical analysis of intersection angles of stable and unstable manifolds.
