Hold the left mouse button down and move (slowly) around each scene. Zoom in & out (slowly) with the wheel.

Each frame across the bottom of the screen is a new image.

Pilot Lands MIG-AT Manually. Horizontal stabilizer partially disintegrates during a test flight and Remote Control System (Fly By Wire?) shuts down. Pilot lands his plane manually. English subtitles included. This happened in 1997.
