I aim to put the spot light on aviation based design. You're free to contribute if you wish. 
Stay tuned, the next in the project will feature a jet fighter and the hud display I talked to you once on MSN.

There goes the siren that warns of the air raid
Then comes the sound of the guns sending flak
Out for the scramble we've got to get airborne
Got to get up for the coming attack.
Jump in the cockpit and start up the engines
Remove all the wheelblocks there's no time to waste
Gathering speed as we head down the runway
Gotta get airborne before it's too late.
Running, scrambling, flying
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
Run, live to fly, fly to live. Aces high.
Move in to fire at the mainstream of bombers
Let off a sharp burst and then turn away
Roll over, spin round and come in behind them
Move to their blindsides and firing again.
Bandits at 8 O'clock move in behind us
Ten ME-109's out of the sun
Ascending and turning our spitfires to face them
Heading straight for them I press down my guns
Rolling, turning, diving
Rolling, turning, diving, going in again
Run, live to fly, fly to live, do or die
Run, live to fly, fly to live, Aces high.
Nice design, i really like it.

Excellent 2d and use of stock. Nothing really I can see that would improve it. Is this a resize though? Because the text is very blurry. I'll send you the images I have already soon.

Mucho thanks for the support mate.
Nah, this is not a resize. I'm not sure why, but small sized text over a dark background always tends to fark up. :\

i like it, but since you want advanced critique, here it is:
The stock of the fighter jet pilot is okay. but looking at the lens, it has a different pattern than the background. put the background over that using those colors.
Credit for the stock.
smooth out the vector next to 'aces high' and the one above it... its really jaggedy.
top right corner: put all of four effect's logos there, and a little box (outline only) around yours, and the names of each person... theres only 4.

Very nice. I like the 2D and Typo but i think the poilet would look great if you vectored it. It would make the whole thing very impressive.
