I saw that a couple of years ago, really good stuff !! There is another one out there of a japanese floatplane and some battleships that is equally as good. Naawww... it ain't as good, but i will try to find it.

Believe it or not, that is actually an old animation. IIRC, it was made about 2003 or so. The Japanese programmer, "touchy" or "touchi" or something like that, is absolutely phenomenal. He had a website once that had many animations just like that. I don't remember the address, and it may not exist any more.

Just think with the technology now, how much better it could be!

If only the Hollywood animators could use him as a consultant, we wouldn't have to worry about Zero's and P-40's doing 90 degree square turns between hangars. (Pearl Harbor :( )

Not that I could ever do something like that but I've always wondered why with such great animation and the obvious skill and effort put into it, the Merlins don't crackle and pop on landing. Or is that just me? :)

The web site is:

http://www.angel.ne.jp/~tochy

Tried for a minute to navigate the site but my Japanese is a little rusty ( as in non-existent) so I didn't meet with any success. He has a lot of stuff listed there.
