Build A Plane is a sandbox game, which means there are n number of plane designs one can come up with. However, there are some rules one should follow to go a longer distance. If you simply follow the rules below, you will definitely fly for a long time.
- Always add as many fuels or propellers as possible to stay airborne. Both of these are very essential, as one determines your overall speed while the other determines the amount of fuel you carry.
