Thats mightily impressive. 0.1 short of 1000 mtrs. It looks just like you are flying over it, it's so realistic.

I'm a bit curious how they got so close to, but not quite 1km... Didn't anybody have 10cm of track handy to stick on the end?
Regardless, it's a massive achievement and I have to give them credit for it!
