Auto Credit Based on WestTXfun's Sailplane for Going The Distance - 20,000 ft.
Heavily XML modded sailplane that glides almost 30,000 ft from the deck of the carrier. On takeoff, go max throttle and let it climb. If you hold the nose down, the sailplane will shake itself apart. Once up and settled in place, you should only need to gradually increase trim to lift the nose and keep her flying smoothly.
