Progress
Wings and levels
Every round you play adds flight miles to your logbook: one mile for every ten Glide Coins staked, and at least one mile per round. Miles raise your level and, at fixed points, earn you a new set of wings. Wings add a loyalty boost to the Prop Wheel and the Supply Drop on the airfield. They never expire, never reset and are never sold.
The six sets of wings
| Wings | Flight miles | Airfield boost | About |
|---|---|---|---|
| Paper | 0 | None | Every pilot starts here. Folded, light and surprisingly good at gliding. |
| Balsa | 5,000 | 5% | Your first real wood. Earned after a few relaxed sessions. |
| Canvas | 25,000 | 10% | Stitched and stretched over a frame, like the earliest biplanes. |
| Aluminium | 100,000 | 15% | Riveted metal for pilots who know the hangar well. |
| Carbon | 300,000 | 20% | Light, black and very strong. A long time in the logbook. |
| Stratos | 1,000,000 | 25% | The edge of the sky. The last set of wings, kept for good. |
You are wearing Paper wings with 0 flight miles.
Levels
Levels are a finer measure of the same miles. Level 2 needs 200 miles, and each level after that needs a little more than the one before. Reaching a new level shows a short message and adds nothing else — no coins, no unlocks — so there is no reason to play longer than you want to just to see the next number.
Guests in demo mode do not earn miles, because nothing in demo mode is saved. Register free to start your logbook.
