So let's take distance, for example. And the number that we try to maximize is simply the distance that we cover over the ground within a certain fixed altitude window of 1000 meters.
And so what I was doing back then was, you can look at the charts of these sort of plots of these vertical speed, horizontal speed, all these parameters that are
