Cloudbank (daytime aerial cloudbank)

A dense daytime aerial cloudbank that the DC-3 plunges into during its escape: under bright skies the plane dives into thick white vapors that erase visibility and muffle engines, breaking the pursuing enemy biplanes' targeting lock. The concealment—used while ferrying the Sankara Stones and rescued children—briefly hides the DC-3 as fighters circle above; Kao Kan peers from clear air outside, turning the bank's embrace into a fleeting shield that heightens pursuit tension before the next break.
