Flight challenges you to fly a paper airplane to London
Who doesn't like flying paper planes? I know I do, but I can never make them quite right – they never fly for more than a few seconds. Flight has just given me another chance to fulfill my lifelong dream of flying a paper plane all the way to London, England!
The background story is not the best – a lonely girl is sending a note to Santa to bring her mommy home for Christmas (not sure why Santa would be in London) – but the game itself is super-fun.
You need to fly your paper airplane as far as it would go, and collect as many stars as you can along the way. The stars, the distance you travel and some other parameters like velocity and altitude help you accumulate money. With this money you can buy cool upgrades for your plane that will help you get it to London that much faster.
The graphics for this game are pretty impressive, but you might want to engage that mute button before you really get into it – the music is rather annoying.
All in all it's a fun little game. There are just two things I still couldn't figure out: What does the pink origami swan do? And what happens when you get to London? Tell us in the comments if you made it!

The pink cranes are multipliers for your cash - acquiring one gets you 2x cash, two 3x, etc. Also, there is an upgrade in the shop that gives you a small speed boost when hitting a crane.

It's not just london, then you go to paris, then i think somewhere in africa, then china, then tokoy then back to london or something like that.. there's like 5-7 stages, in each one you have to fly longer and longer

I love alot of the games you post, but it seems like you only spend like a minute with them, before going to something else.
You don't fly TO London, you START in London. You fly to Japan. Once you finish the first part, it goes to a different country. And if you had so much as hit an Origami crane, you would know what it would do. It says right on them "X2 Bonus", it doubles the money the stars give you.
After completing each stage, you see the progression of the letter, and when someone finds it, they add something else to it. The letter eventually reaches Santa.
It's a very fun game, and a nice touch is after you beat it, you can keep playing it for achievements. Once you max out all upgrades, tho, there's nothing else the money can do.

@Drakkenfyre:
Hmm. I spent more than a minute with it, but of course I didn't spend much more than 5 (it is a time-waster, after all). I wrote what I saw: I saw the destination as London and I didn't see anything about Japan. And it didn't say X2 on the cranes. And I didn't see anything added to the letter, I saw miles or km added as if on my way to London.
Anyways, this is the way I understood it. If it's that wrong, I guess the game is not very clear, or maybe it changes after a while. I definitely played at least 5-6 rounds.

The whole, right-click trick works with this game.
