Initial Render

All parameters have been set to mental ray, the materials for the plane have been finalised (as much as they can be, all I need is the globe material, a background image and lighting, but this initial render shows the cut of the plane taking off.

I will explain why it's in reverse. The idea for this scene was, with input from another group member, to have the rayfire tool incorporated into this shot (obviously it would be closer, this shot is too far away) and as that tool collapses the object, I would want to reverse the whole scene in premiere pro to give the illusion it was being constructed and then taking off.

Upon reflection of this test, it would be better to have a close 'cut' of the plane being constructed from a reverse of the rayfire, and then cut to this test of the takeoff.
