  City of Angels Los Angeles Film Festival on April 7th, 2006 that the  time limitations on the film actually did not hinder production, as  they required thought and economy towards the shots being attempted,  and also as the Mirage 2000 plane itself had to refuel every 45  minutes. The director took great pride in the fact that he was able  to use this camera to capture the incredible look and feeling of  flight, without resorting to using the computer to manipulate his  images.
