Is there an animations Hall of Fame?  If not, there should be, and this 
should be on it.  Amazing work, Kenneth.  I'm blown away.

You've shared a little about some of your tricks, but I'm anxious to 
hear more!  So the clouds are just spheres with textures!?  I would 
never have known, especially since you see the planes coming through 
them naturally enough.

What about the flames?  Very realistic!  Rendering flames in POV is 
difficult enough as a still image, let alone animated, flying through 
the air at 150 mph.  Again, I'm very impressed.

Beyond the technical aspects, the scened is very aesthetically 
appealing.  The bright orange flames serve as an excellent highlight 
against the turquoise of the sky and cockpit.  I love the reflections on 
the hull, and the textures in general are very realistic.

Thanks for making this masterpiece, and thanks for sharing it.

Kirk
