Helicopter revealing preview animation

preview animation of a helicopter done in max8.
56k triangles, 3k Delaunay triangulation nurbs reactor cloth mesh, 15 min reactor calculation time, 20 min of material and preview rendering, 2 hours for rendering the 600 frames at 30fps.

standard camera, Mental ray renderer, 100 samples for Global Illumination & Final gather, image sampling range from 1/16 to 16, triangle 2x2 filter, single omni light, 600x800.

Final gather calculation wasn't re-calculated for every frame which explains the strange shadow effect, hence preview.

Yes, the cloth disappears into the ground. ;-)
