CL-215

The key is to slow down enough to fill your tank from the lake, then get as low and as slow as possible when you dump over the fire. Watch out for the d*mned flocks of birds!
 
I can fly real slow but I can't get any water..... Also how do you dump the water. This game sucks but I'm addicted.
 
You have to just skim the top of the water to pick up the water in the plane...your reserves of water are on the gauge. To dump the water hit the space bar.

You have to skim the water to fill up. Don't sink too low in the water or be going too fast, or you'll crash.

The space bar dumps the water.
 
Its a bitch to get that tank filled. I could not make it past two skims w/o crashing into the drink :( No super scooper for me.
 
once you guys start taking on water, do you need to speed it up? also, where do you have its airspeed at? the blue part of the airspeed indicator?
 
I have now managed a score of 10 (not 10K but 10 points). I knew not playing video games as a youngster was going to affect me.
 
Once the game starts back the speed off to the blue and red line. Don't touch the speed for the rest of the game. Just use the arrow keys to play. You have to barely skim the water. You also have to get down low over the fires to put them out. Usually it takes 3 trys to extinguish the fires but it can be done in 2 trys before advancing to the next round. By the way, if you go into your, "Documents and Setting" folder you can find under one of the users, usually the administrator, the game called, "waterplane.swf" in there and place it on your desktop. The game is almost the entire screen and it makes it easier to play. You also don't have to keep going back to the website for it.

If you are going fast enough when you hit the birds, you will wreck into the fire you are trying to put out. I also tried spraying the birds but the spray doesn't effect them..

The trick is to fill up completely, stay low under the first flock, fly in the middle of the screen over the second flock, drop low to hit the fire, then climb to the middle of the screen and accellerate to max speed. Skip filling up again as you should have enough to douse it the second time. As soon as you go feet dry over the fire island, decellerate to min speed, drop after the second flock and douse again. 2 water drops should be enough to douse the fire.
Most of the score comes from the time bonus, so speed is essential.

I guess reserve isn't so bad!
