# Smooth the flight path

1. With the hornbill selected, select the curves view (<img src="/files/4uO7xeKgGS1ss7Fg1g5g" alt="" data-size="line">).
2. Select a key on the track that controls the horizontal motion. In this example, it’s the Z (blue) axis.
3. Press the **f** key on your keyboard to focus on the track.

You will probably see a step in the middle key where the track flattens out. This is what causes the pause in horizontal motion.

* To smooth out the motion, select the middle key, and adjust the tangent line to create a smooth transition.
