Fly around the world
Note: A auto-fire controller is required for this trick. While flying the hang-glider, land on the skydiving platform to unlock a bonus flight. Use the auto-fire controller to rapidly tap A to fly as the Birdman. Move out to sea as far as possible, past the score markers. Continue flying to eventually return to the beach where the flight started. Note: Doing this only results in 50 points.
