Adjust flaps to 20°, ensure brakes are disengaged. 2. Increase thrust to ~85%. 3. Allow plane to accelerate to ~300kph (~186mph). Adjust this depending on weight. (More for heavier cargo) 4. Pull up gently and the plane should lift off the ground. 5. Continue ascending at about 10°, and with constant thrust. 6. Raise landing gear, and retract flaps when safe. CRUISING: Cruising altitude is ~10,000 metres (32,800 ft. If you go above that you will crash. LANDING: (Very complicated, requires practice) 1. Prepare for landing by lowering the throttle, and pitching down. 2. Let the plane glide and slowly reach the target. Adjust speed and pitch to ensure the plane reaches the runway at the right speed and altitude. This takes practice. Recommended to use the information screen [I] as well. ! Watch the PAPI lights (4 red/white squares), they tell you the approach angle - red means too low, white means too high, 2 red + 2 white = correct approach angle ! 3. When nearing the runway, lower landing gear and extend flaps fully. 4. Make fine adjustments with thrust and spoilers (they are brakes that slow down the plane) 5. Once over the runway, execute a "flare" - throttle down, but pitch up slightly to slow the plane and prevent a hard landing. 6. After touchdown, pitch down so all wheels hit the ground, and use the brakes [C, V] and spoilers [Z, X] to slow down the plane. Retract flaps as well. Runways are 3.5km long.
