MJ Air!

[TSCM]

Pseudo-related, this is how the concerts were to end:

Jackson's concerts in London were intended to end with a full-scale, stereoscopic Boeing 707 taxiing out on to the stage in profile, with its wing appearing to hang out over the audience. Then a real gangway would lift from the stage up to the door of the CG aircraft. A real door was built into the screen. Jackson would then exit the stage through the door into the CG plane. As the music played, the aircraft would then taxi into the distance, turn around, and take off over the audiences' heads -- a thrilling finale to "the concert event of the century."

It's actually from a lengthy article written by the company in charge of the 3D components of the concerts.

Is THAT company posting this article in charge of the concerts? If it is, then I think this article is reliable. "MJ Air" idea is so fresh and impressive.

Thanks for the info TSCM! So did they actually rehearse the exit? Or was it just a plan.. that we'll never get to see?

We may never get to see it. Before the MITM soundcheck in TII, KO said "we will then talk about MJ Air," before they mimicked the air stewardesses.

Thanks for the picture! Could have a better picture, but I can not find. I see that has a yellow ball and seems to have something drawn on it. It would be a symbol? :scratch:

i think the yellow ball looks a little like saturn. kinda. that's what i first thought anyway. although, it wouldn't make much sense. hmm.

From official This is it program

'We called the ending MJ Air', Paul (Gongaware) says. 'A plane lands , taxis up. Michael walks up the stairs into the plane, closes the door, taxis down the runway and takes off overhead. It was incredible.'

Yes, I also thought about Saturn, but can also be a smile: it seems that Smile is within Saturn.

Michael always liked a lot of symbols.
