However, I am bothered by the flight path of the shuttle during Needa's visit to the Executor. It seems a bit arching and ponderous to me (for all 7 seconds it's on screen). Is that flight path final?

It's not really that big of a deal. I'm just (exasperatingly) curious. :) 

Have to say that although the 'zippy-ness' of the original 'box' craft has gone, I reckon the new 'drop-down' and path downwards looks really good with this new shuttle.  I think it's movement still works well with the existing music cue that's heard here.

 

Just as an aside -  I always thought that this was another alternative place where part of the impressive, slow-moving 'overhead' Stardestroyer element that is being discarded from the start of 'ROTJ:Revisited' might have integrated nicely....although it would have meant re-working the new shuttle's flightpath (and music cue) a little differently - 

....just after the scene on Dagobah which ends with Yoda telling Luke "That is why you fail"....the fade would then go to the 'ROTJ shuttle' dropping down and opening it's wings, and the  background would now just be a starfield with a glimpse of one or two other Stardestroyers which also seem to be in a 'holding pattern' at this point (no TIEs dropping down either, of course)....

....then perhaps at a point where the wings have fully extended, we'd then cut to the shot which reveals the 'Executor' below as Adywan's new shuttle continues on it's path downward from underneath the front bay instead (with the shots 'colour-corrected' to match up, of course) -

So it would have had the same sort of an 'extra shot' feel that Jaitea's version had -  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6B92nPs8lg

However, it turned out to be a moot point now that Ady has pointed out that the shuttle in the ROTJ shot is the wrong scale (too big) coming out of the 'forward' bay anyway....and I'm personally more than happy with how his new version has turned out -   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nSjLImZq7Ao
