Particle flow basics

Particle flow is a fairly new system in 3ds max, it's very flexible and makes it easy to create something like homing misilles in a few min, so that's what we'll do this tutorial.
We start by making a Pflow source and then animate some simple airplane placeholder objects as the target for our 'missile' particles, finally we'll make a simple explosion when the 2 collide and also destroy the missile particle.
