FlightActivity.java 
import android.os.Bundle;

public class FlightActivity extends Activity {

  public int mFuelLevel = 0;

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

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

import android.os.Bundle;

public class FlightActivity extends Activity {

public int mFuelLevel = 0;

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

// Add your code below!
Intent intent = getIntent();
mFuelLevel = intent.getIntExtra("FUEL_LEVEL", -1);

} }

You almost got it right! Just a little bit off. "public int getIntExtra (FUEL_LEVEL, -1)" is a method of intent class. The second problem is to get int value from extra and put it into mFuelLevel.

"intent.getIntExtra("FUEL_LEVEL", -1)" this code is use to get int value from intent.putExtra and "mFuelLevel =" is use to put the value into "int mFuelLevel"
