Awesome.

From tyler@cg1.org:
The modeling is suberb, and you were real close to getting a perfect score from me until I read about the sky. That's practically cheating!
=====
From rgow@lanset.com:
Nice! Good job matching foreground to sky, but some of the reflections on the plane don't match the suns direction.

From mr.kroll@verizon.net:

From jjaguar@worldnet.att.net:
When you use bitmapped textures, one thing you need to look out for is
to make sure the lighting is consistent with the rest of the image.  The
lighting from this sky doesn't really match the lighting on the
airplane.

From jrcsurvey@aol.com:
Nicely modelled.

From irtc_mail@yahoo.co.uk:

The light on the plane does not seem to match the light in the
background sky photo.

From slone@hiwaay.net:
Wonderful model and lighting, though not perfectly on topic since props are
still in regular use. The smoke trail seems more turbulent than I would expect
at that speed. Nice motion blur on the blades.

Very good modelling and a good composition. The motion blur of the propeller is really good. I like this image.
