Well done, I prefer edit2. The smoke fading away looks good.

I agree, edit 2 looks great. But wouldn't the smoke dissipate a lot more, rather than remain in that cylider style shape?

Looks awesome

although if the aircraft had only been hit a few seconds ago, like someone pointed out, then maybe edit-1 is the best Still when the shot is edited like you have done it makes a lot of difference

Happy birthday, Oleg! Its shaping up very nicely....very well done!
About the fps: it most likely will be very similar to ROF, wich is fine for me.

It would be good if the smoke started in both ways, explosion followed by fire or just straight fire, depending on where you hit the target.

I think the smoke would stay like that. Remember, the plane would move that distance in maybe less than 2 seconds, and the smoke will not dissipate much in such short time.
To me it looks good.

That's what I was thinking when I read the complaint

I agree. In a still screenshot the faded edit looks better but if the smoke faded away that quickly (~1 sec I'd guess), it'd look very odd in motion. The second screenshot (with the fuel spray) shows a longer smoke trail and can be seen to be expanding and dissipating at the origin.
