Excellent stuff Ian! Cleverly thought-out & brilliantly executed. Those very nice Phantoms look stunning against the exploding backdrop.

Easily worthy of 5 stars.

Cheers

I'm amazed at how effective the fire ball looks. I would never have thought it could have come out so realistic. Great idea and great execution and a couple of very effective looking Phantoms.

Brilliant job.

I'm amazed at how effective the fire ball looks. Brilliant job.

Seconded. Something I doubt I would have even attempted. The Phantom has always been one of my favourites.

Primo. And i like all the trees is the napalm (expand foam) ? very clever and good idea.

Great work Ian and clearly a lot of work gone into it. I agree Keith, the Phantom has always been one of my favourite aircraft. My father who was in the RAF spent a lot of time with them along with a lot of other cold war jets. As a plane its taken alot of stick by some historians. Ive even heard one refer to it as "A very big and very fast bus" I wonder how those on the receiving end of its bite would feel. A formidable aircraft that despite some setbacks proved itself in combat.
