This is the second chapter of Clear Skies. You should be able to download it from Vimeo on the lower right, or you can also get both a torrent and direct download link at:
dl.eve-files.com/media/corp/JohnRourke/Clear_Skies2.wmv

The first chapter is available at:
vimeo.com/4778943

To introduce Clear Skies, I will quote James Egan from Massively.com as he put it far better than I could have:

“Clear Skies follows a trio of down-and-out misfits who've seen no end of bad luck. John Rourke is the obstinate captain of the Clear Skies, a Tempest class battleship manufactured by the downtrodden Minmatar race of New Eden. Rourke's attitude toward his hazardous chosen lifestyle is cavalier, although this does not sit well with his friends among the crew. Solomon Burke is the pessimistic ship's engineer, while Charlie Fodder -- a gunner with an ironic name -- does his best to keep the crew alive. Typical of life in New Eden, Fodder is doomed to remain a rather busy man.

These likeable dropouts from the entrenched corporate lifestyle of New Eden eke out a meager living on trade runs and the odd courier job here and there. Still, they manage to find humor in their grim lot as they narrowly avoid being blown out of the stars by pirates, hired thugs, or whatever threat awaits them on the other side of the next jump gate. This is life aboard the Clear Skies. It's not a comfortable lifestyle by any means, but the crew is free to live and die by their own terms. Of course, their exploits do make for some good stories.”

    Hi Ian. I really enjoyed Clear Skies and Clear Skies 2. I hope you don't mind, but I uploaded Clear Skies here until you get it uploaded next week. I figured that there would be quite a few people who would be looking for the original. If there is any problem, please let me know and I'll remove it.

    The Clear Skies videos are amazing, and much more than just the typical 'fan vids'. The writing, the direction, the voice acting. CCP needs to hire Ian and his team and get hem on the payroll.

    Top notch work on this, Ian. Didn't think you could do much better than Clear Skies, but this is even better. Story is wonderful. Thank God you are making movies like this.
