Which target do you mean? The 6000ft target?

Done it in 18 now  Would have been 17 but I made a mistake in pulling up too sharply and lost a lot of speed.

No, the 10' target. I was doing it wrong  I'm now seriously struggling with the 6000' target. I can get the altimeter up to about 350 whatever units, but I've tried various angles and speeds of accent with no improvement...

I go up with a resistance of 20 until the rockets run out and then change to a resistance of 0 as quickly as possible. You should be going about 120mph and be at about 200ft at that point and your speed will slowly increase. When you can see the sea pull up and go back to 0 resistance. Oh, and 6000ft is along not up

That's the bit that takes me ages - getting upgraded. Once I'm fully loaded I can do it in one go too. Need to practise getting the upgrading bit right. I don't do anything for three days until Day 4 when I've bought the hang-glider thing.

Aaargh! I thought that was the altitude challenge. I should learn to read  I can get all the final targets in one flight, which gives me enough for the final upgrade. 28 days. That's a bit better, but room for improvement

Day 1 - Acceleration Day 2 - get the distance challenge and buy the Hang glider Day 3 - No rewards 2x Ramp height and 1x Air resistance. On day 4 I can get the 10' and the time challenge then buy more acceleration. Day 5 - get the speed challenge.
