Nicely done.
The only thing I might suggest is to clone out the stragglers at the
edges.
There actually were quite a few stragglers already cloned out... but
the last time the previous photographer cloned ALL of them out, it
looked bizarre and unreal.
Next year, I will get the box more square in my viewfinder and then
the stragglers will be naturally unincluded in the final image.. I
just wasn't assertive enough the very first time I was up in the crane
directing the volunteers with the orange cones to draw the frame.
Heh - he even managed to "select" the red paint line and changed it to
green to match the grass.

For the past 19 years, I've attended a festival (Twins Days) in
Twinsburg, Ohio every fall.
Every Saturday at 3:00 there is a "group photo" taken from the top
of a cherry-picker. Looks like this:
http://john.robinsontwins.org/twinsdays/group_shots/content/2008_large.html
This image has been taken with a Nikon D200 for the past couple of
years. Looks OK I guess (this is a scan of a print I'm pointing
to now).
Last post on this subject!
This is the resulting image. Not great (I didn't "square the box"
well enough when putting the outlines on the ground) but everyone
so far has been very happy with the amount of detail/resolution.
I'm told "I've never been able to make out faces in the back"
before. Happily, with the K10D and DA16-50, I was able to do this
even with the rain pouring down. Oddly, it is difficult to discern
that it is raining when you look at the image.
The picture here is presented using the "Zoomify" export option
from CS4 - mostly because I don't want anyone to have an easily-
downloadable copy of an image which they hopefully will want to
PURCHASE from the organizers of the festival.
I guess what I'm saying is: If you don't do FLASH you won't (sorry)
be able to see this. Otherwise - click to zoom if you so desire!
