Unfortunately the link for download of PAL-video ("Bruce Ingram has very kindly put up a mirror for the film. A Lonely Sky PAL (94mb quicktime 7)") does not work!

Beautifully made short film, strong performances by all. Excellent special effects on such a low budget. Sets, costumes, all first rate. Great to see Keir Dullea. Haunting storyline, with a touch of the "Twilight Zone" at the end. Thanks for putting the whole film on the site, would never have seen it otherwise.

Hi..Thanks for the comments. I am glad to see that people like the story as well as the effects.

As far as budget is concerned, it was very low. Stock, Labs, Set, output to film and sound licences were the costs. Not sure of a full estimate but probably less than 20,000 Euros.

Very, very nice. A wonderful, rich slice of aviation history, beautifully done (especially since much of it was CG!). I wanted the film to go on -- I wanted more of this -- sort of a second pass on The Right Stuff, but with such powerful and gorgious ambiance. Thanks for putting it on the web -- most of us never would have seen it otherwise. Great to see Kier Dullea again -- and a nice choice of actors all around.

An extraordinary piece of work. Wonderful pacing, script and of course, visual effects. What was the budget for this? (excluding the value of favours!). Thanks for offering it on the net.

Loved what I have seen of this. Am absolutely obsessed with Paudge Behan. Can you assist in more info on him or where to contact him. Think he is a definite untapped talent.

Thank you.

I am truly inspired to do what you have done. The period visuals and the haunting music of your featurette make me wish I was younger and start the career I really wanted to do when I left school. One day!

As a reality television producer looking to cross over into big budget features, I find what you've done truly inspiring! I am currently learning to work with 3d software in a greater capacity in order to "single-handedly" do all my own CG...sounds like an uphill battle, but as you've proven, one worth fighting. Congrats and let us know when we can see the whole film over here in the States.
