Haha that one time where professionality got to the best of you. I knew that using my time to turn and land on the runway was unnecesary so I just decided to land next to Astronaut Training Centre/Mission Control and stop as soon as possible. Besides, it met the quota of within 5 km. To accomplish a better time I decided to create an entirely new spaceplane, but in the end I determined it was lacking control and would have spun out multiple times. After I pulled the plug on that, I went back to my previous Z-3 design and ripped out more luxury parts like ASAS and an extra fuel tank. I mean, who needs an Avionics Package when you can just micromanage every aspect of your altitude and speed, which I also broke a personal record of 26km high and 1.6km/s with running TurboJets. After that was completed, I moved on to my voyage to Duna, which at the moment has been stalled becuase I have no idea how to use the Sr. Docking Ports. Anyways, thanks

This thing is going to be absolutaly massive when it is finished! I do hope it can make it there and not disintegrate, as this looks amazing. Also appears it could use a little bit more fuel.

As much as having Mega-Storms on Eve sounds absolutaly Epic, I would prefer to be able to drill the moon of valuable resources and sell it in career mode to build larger rockets . Of course one day people will be raging for Eve Storms!

I have noted this for when I actually use the Sr. Ports. Thanks for the heads up!

Here is my own submission and update to my previous scores. I went over the North Pole at 13:03 and Landed back at KSC at 36:35 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEIdem6Eedg&feature=c4-overview&list=UUtzVxHJ8CR-g2Hyvs3OBgHA

Flying over it. I am about to add a section of flying there, landing, and THEN coming back.

I do believe you take my #1 spot! Now my race is on to build an even more efficient rocket.

Hello everyone, stardust0123 here with a challenge! After watching kurtjmac fly is spaceplane tediously for an hour to the northern pole of the beloved planet Kerbin, I set out to do it in a record setting time. My spaceplane, the Z-3 Super Sonic Explorer was able to reach the North Pole in what I believe to be the fastest time (16:42). Just to prove how I did it, I made a video about it on my YT Channel. But what I am here for, is to see if the KSP community can beat that time (16:42)! Regular Mode! Rules: -Spaceplanes Only -No Mods -No using the debugging client A Video or pictures of you completing the mission would be much appreciated! Post your times and video/pictures and you will get a rank on this post! 1. glacierre (9:42) 2. KinkyFerrets (11:16) 3. stardust0123 (13:02) HARD MODE! Hard mode consists of flying over the Kerbin North Pole, Landing, and then returning to within 5 km of KSC. May the person with the best time win!
