Gdi+ Animation Loops

[clowns119]

Hi all I have written an app that draws a line from a startpoint and an
endpoint based on values typed in two textboxes. I placed a airplane at the
beginning of the line and I want to use the timer call and a loop to move the
airplane along the line until it gets to the end in 2 second intervals. Here is what i have so far I am stuck on the loop I cannot figure out how to do it. Thanks in advance for any help.
