Auto Credit Based on TheGliderGuy's The Glider Challenge
Controls are: AG1 to open the canopy, AG2 to turn on the wing lights, AG3 to turn on the body lights, AG4 to turn on the cockpit lights. There are VTOL flaps on the wings.
Flight instructions: Start in the air (the higher the better) and retract the landing gear. let the plane swoop up and then dip down before lowering the VTOL flaps to keep the plane in the sky. Changing direction in the air actually makes the plane rise higher. This can keep the plane in the air for 10-12 minutes. All the controls can be operated from the cockpit.
The stick at the back is a shock absorber for landing. It also has an air-brake.
