I just tried copying an animation track from a plane (created using the animation wizard with tweaked altitude on some key frames) to the main camera and it seemed to work OK. 1) Create animation for plane 2) Select plane 3) copy (ctrl-c) 4) select camera 5) right click, "paste animation" But I wouldn't normally try to animate the camera that way. 1) create animation path for airplane 2) In frame zero position camera to correctly from the airplane 3) Link camera to airplane 4) create animation preview If you want to vary the camera's position relative to the airplane slightly for diferent shots at diferent points in the animation then make the changes after linking the camera to the plane. That's the method I used for the quicky demo above, -- Mark
