Stuck in GTA:SA

Yeah, I know it's not a new game, but it's still fun.

OK, so I'm stuck on the third mission where you learn how to fly. It's the part where you have to take off, circle the runway and make a landing. The only problem is, I can't get to the first target after take off. Every time I try to get high enough up, my engine stalls out because I'm pulling up too quickly.

Can anyone help? 

i had the same problem. the key is to back up as far as you can on the runway and retract the wheels literally seconds after taking off, it takes a few trys but you'll get it right.MDDichard07

Did it the second time I tried it after I lifted the landing gear...damn landing gear :)

you can always cheat and slow the game down
