om...
Hi all,

Sorry - I should have explained why I needed the information.
I'm a university student, studying for a Computing degree. As part of
my final year, I am doing a computer animation (for computer
graphics). I am producing an in-flight safety animation video which is
almost complete, but for the last few scenes I would like to cover
Emergency procedures.
It's not essential that the scenes are entirely accurate, but if I can
make them a little more realistic (lights and sounds help), then that
would make the animation as a whole look better.

Thanks again,

-Mike


Well, for drama's sake, since accuracy is not essential... The lighting
on the floor is a series of alternating red, white and blue strobes that
twinkle to the beat of Yellow Submarine whilst running in the direction of
the nearest exit. All lights in the cabin also strobe toward the exits,
however they maintain an amber shade until just before the crash, when they
turn red and cycle at a rate of 73 pulses per minute.... maybe that's 87,
but accuracy doesn't matter.... Flight attendants are busy running up and
down the aisles making sure everyone looks neat and tidy -- ties straight,
etc. -- for the best appearance on the six o'clock news -- while making sure
that all airline logos are either blacked out or replaced with those of the
most hated rival airline.

Sheesh..... accuracy is not essential.
