In regards to the camera moving all over the place, you have stable cockpit shots you could use for the cockpit element. Rather than keep the original shot or any part of it (such as blue-screening the mock-up background onto the original shot) maybe you could do one of 2 options:

(1) take an earlier cockpit scene (Luke's strafe of the first AT-AT or inside Zev's cockpit during the search) where the camera is stable; delete the external image and replace with the new background. Afterwards, any sort of camera shakes could be added to recreate the original shot.

(2) take the new mock-up shot but excise the cockpit. There were shots from inside Zev's cockpit when he was searching for Han and Luke where all we saw was the terrain. You could in essense put the camera right outside the cockpit window so the only element to mess with would be the outside image... as well as add the shaking and other elements afterwards...

Yeah it can work. No need to track the footage. Just create a plate and imitate the movement.

no it can't work. you can't just create a plate & imitate the movement because you need long enough footage of fast moving ground for this to be able to work. There isn't any shots in ESB what i could use because of all the other elements in the shots. I can't use the snowspeeder search because the speeder is flying over the mountains so the ground isn't flat like the AT-AT battle so a total mismatch. the only way to do this would be to find a movie that has a long enough flyover of flat snow covered ground.

Is there any footage from Firefox that could be used !?
