I must say the 5 hour duration part of the
Silver seems like a MUCH harder task than
the alt or dist.

No matter what glider you fly, five hours is
still five hours. At the point I did it, it
was the longest I had ever continuously
piloted any aircraft, despite over 1500 flight hours
before that (also with no bathroom).


I agree, who can fly 5 hours probably can do 300k or even 500k in a
"hot" ship.
