Hi everyone!

It was a long long time since I posted in the forums! Well I’m back and need some help with an effect I saw a few years ago. It was a flash movie of a small airplane leaving a trail of text as is moved through the 2D sky. I guess it involves a motion guide and the plane following the guide but how do I make the text appear in the way that the plane flies?

Cheers 😉
