I managed to throw the plane out the window and crash it into a chimney outside. Distance was 15.058 metres.

I had a few more attempts and made it out the window, over the chimney, over some trees and past a kid's playground before crashing. Distance was 55.065m.

I reckon the really high scorers are using trackballs. Don't bother trying anyone, I busted the fan with 330 direct hits :B .

Isn't it just. 86.725m... but its a bit depressing to know that there is 180,500 people better than me.:( :)

I wonder who the pimply faced little git that is ranked No. 1 is?:no:

Its also a bit of a worry that it remembers your scoreafter you log off and get back on again...Bill's up to his tricks again!

I found start high and throw hard and slightly downward. The harder you throw the more lift the plane get so if you throw it downwards it then pulls up and flies out the window.

99.364m after about 10 tries.

111.724m. Can't crack 111m yet...

Got to 74m, Lig dont let go of the mouse button...

I reckon ball type mouse's would have an advantage here, a laser mouse can take a while to respond to a sharp and fast movement.

I am using Microsoft's cheapest and nastiest optical mouse.

And up to 113.161m... :D

Its a MS mouse. Do you think the game would let you get scores like that with a logitech mouse? It would just keep crashing.... the plane and the computer that is.:)

And as far as becoming No. 1 ...... good luck but you have to beat the entire youth of South Korea to get there.

Same here:( Im possitive its because im using a small monitor.

Ive just worked out if you move the plane to the far left and right click you can then move the cursor to the right and left click and let fly:D Maybe sometine in the next 5 or 6 hours i might be able to get it out of the window:rolleyes:

Ok Lig, here's a tip. Place the plane on the line that looks like a wall/ceiling junction on the left, now move the cursor leftwards out of the window, around to the right hand side staying out of the window and bring it in to the window around about the floor wall junction. With slight adjustments in the starting position and where you bring the cursor in, you'll get it out the window. I wasn't cheating - honest, I have a powermac and the touchpad doesn't work so well for this!
