I think as soon as a reset happens, a solar eclipse could be modeled. You look out your canopy, suddenly there is the moon crossing the sun! Within 5 minutes, everything goes black and the stars come out. Then, this mysterious aurora appears in the sky, coming closer to you, like in that movie "The Final Countdown" where the Nimitz got sent back in time to WW2
The aurora gets closer and closer to you, then a flash. Your airplane spins, your gauges tumbling and spinning wildly. A swirly "Time Tunnel" appears in front of you sucking you in.
Then POW! Your cruising along at 10k in a clear sunny sky in a strange mysterious world. Wait, there's an airfield below! Is it friendly? Hostile? Will the people I meet when I land even be human?
Would do great things for the immersion factor I think. Plus, going on the "Hollywood writers are never revisionist" theory, it would add realism. After all, the Philadelphia Experiment was based on a true story....
