Background was inadvertently the wrong Gemini export (an unrelated
airliner-over-mountains photo) — sorted out and replaced with the
intended aerial illustration of Antananarivo (Lake Anosy + Rova
hill + city, 487 KB, 1920px wide).
Also lifted the plane's trajectory: y goes from +7 (offscreen
upper-left) to +2 (still upper half, exiting right) instead of
+5..-2. The plane now stays clearly in the upper third of the
viewport, leaving room for the centered CTA button and the city
detail at the bottom.

User-supplied aerial illustration of Antananarivo (Lake Anosy + Rova
hill + surrounding city, 1920px wide JPG, 241 KB) replaces the
parachute-drop video as the static intro backdrop. The video files
are deleted from /videos.
The plane no longer orbits a scroll timeline. Now:
- Page is a single viewport, no scroll, no act labels, no scroll hint.
- Mouse X (0..1) drives plane.position.x from -16 (offscreen left) to
+16 (offscreen right), with plane.position.y descending from +5 to
-2 — so the plane enters from the upper-left and exits lower-right.
- Pitch/roll/yaw lerp toward small targets that depend on mouse X, so
the plane banks naturally as it crosses.
- Background image gets a softer mouse parallax (-16/-10px) via the
existing --mx/--my CSS vars, now updated from intro-scene.js.
- Three.js cloud spheres are gone; the photo is the entire backdrop.
- ScrollTrigger + the GSAP timeline are removed; the page no longer
needs gsap at all (the script tag stayed for now in case it comes
back, but the dependency could be dropped on a future pass).
- CTA button is back to plain visible/centered, no reveal animation.
