In finding a screenshot to show that Angel's ray of light wouldn't be possible, I also was reminded of another one of my gripes.
While the cockpit keeps rocking back and forth at the same rate, the outside seems to cut suddenly from the top frame to the bottom, where it continues until it hits the water.
Fixing it could be as easy as fading from the top to the bottom frame really fast, or reconfiguring the scene as follows:
Luke starts the landing sequence, shot of R2, moved beginning of cockpit, Luke concerned, continuing cockpit shot to crash.
I'm sure Ady has already fixed it though. ;-)
Not to mention that the last shot is flipped.
