Don't know what to do next

I have no clue what to do next I've tried so many things.

FlightActivity.java 
import android.os.Bundle;

public class FlightActivity extends Activity {

  public int mFuelLevel = -1;

  @Override
  protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_flight);

    // Add your code below!
    Intent intent = getIntent();
    mFuelLevel = intent;

  }
}

Hi Josh, by the look of it you are trying to put Intent instance into an int variable, which is not going to work...

mFuelLevel = getIntent();

try to initialize Intent as you did but set it to be this.getIntent() instead As the assignment says:

Start by declaring an Intent variable and getting the Intent used to start this Activity.

good luck, Deckey
