Pass first, improve later
The story brings CJ to Verdant Meadows and its flying school. There are ten lessons covering aircraft takeoff, landing, turns, helicopters, combat maneuvers and parachuting. Aim for bronze across the course to continue progression; improving all lessons to silver or gold can wait.
Build repeatable control
For takeoff, build speed before lifting the nose and retract the landing gear once airborne. For landing, line up early, lower the gear and reduce speed progressively. Large corrections near the ground make a stable approach harder.
- Keep bank and pitch adjustments small while learning the circuit.
- Reset a poor attempt rather than practicing emergency corrections throughout.
- All-bronze results unlock the Rustler.
- All-silver results unlock the Stuntplane; all-gold results unlock the Hunter.
