			316799. Keeping the shuttle straight so you can get the most vertical thrust off the main rocket alone is tough.

			press and hold both left and right arrow keys till it maxes out, wait until the last sec to release, it should drop down into the green zone, the rocket should lift off pretty straight, then just tap left and right to correct and make it fly straight up.
 landing is easy as long as u can get the car to be parallel with the ground.

			LOL, the title reminded me of Rocket Robin Hood.
 That was such a lame cartoon. I don't know why I watched it as often as I did.
