Default Movie trailer from the couple flying their RV-7 around the world

Many of you know that there is a delightful couple, Detlef and Lili Heun, who built an RV7 and they are now in the process of flying it around the world. They just came out with a wonderful video trailer which includes some fantastic footage of their flight.

Enjoy!

Looks like a fun movie, and talk about build-up, the voice over for the trailer makes it sound like this will be the most epic movie ever created.

Is it a George Lucas or James Cameron film?

I get the same on Firefox in Ubuntu. Firefox on Vista works, and Chrome works on both platforms.
