I guess my 1st question is - How do they get back after they have glided down?

Ralphie, that wing is made from a tungsten GT. Someone will get up there to claim it. Probably Larson.

That question is answered if you buy the software update - Return from Mars 2.0 - and is not included with the base package. V2.0 probably looks a little different with an engine of sorts. :facepalm:

Ummm, when you booked your flight didn't you notice that the return flight was listed as -open- with no date/time/gate?

If you throw them correctly, they return to where they started.
