Air traffic

[tim2977]

I have never seen other planes in the sky when I'm flying. Besides when your wanted has anyone ever noticed this?

[rcguy150]

planes don't seem to land either.

[Michael]

What about the big passenger planes

[tim2977]

I think it would be cool if there was traffic coming in and leaving the airport, and if you could crash into planes in mid air

[Michael]

it would be cool if a plane would land and you will see people getting out of it, and then other people getting in and the plane taking off
and if you will be able to jack it while people get in or get in with them without a ticket or something
that would be fun
lol ;)
i hope some one will be able to make a mod for it in the PC version of San Andreas!!! ;)

[markymarc]

yeah in gta3 and vise u had hollow jumbo jet planes landing and takin off, u would think it would be the same in san andreas or have even progressed to things that michael said. or even have small planes taking off and landing.

[Michael]

it's just the same i think
i was too exited about the other san andreas features so i didn't checked this...

[RJ PIMP]

the only time u see other planes, is when the hydras hunt u down because of ur wanted level...

[Gamezonegod]

yeah, i was exited about SA, i thought i could finally do something with those planes

Actually that's not exactly true. Small aircraft fly around all the time and sometimes you'll see random police helicopters flying around in LS.

The funny thing is the user manual says that Los Santos Airport is the fourth busiest airport in the world.

[rockstarbrad]

oh the irony!

[tim2977]

I guess CJ made it the 4th busiest

Michael, you can buy a ticket to one of the other city's airports, assuming their unlocked. It just shows a cutscene of a jumbo jet taking off, flying, and landing. Or you can skip all that and it'll put you outside the airport you were going to. Also, you can jump out of the jumbo jet in midflight and you'll have a parachute.

I mention this because your title said you preordered SA for PC, so I assume you don't have a PS2.

[jroc]

when in los santos you'll normally see a police chopper flying above you whenever you get a lot of your gang members around you.

[gta_is_my_life]

What are you talking about tim2977 and others? I see planes all the time, although the closest thing to landing I've seen them do is crash. One time I was doing a lesson at the flight school and it started me off in the path of a plane, it wrecked into me, but my plane didn't start exploding and I didn't die, the lesson just ended as if I didn't complete it.

[Officer McFarlagne]

No no... they are definately flying while I fly. I was in my Hydra and I saw another plane... I made a mission for myself, to skydive out of my hydra onto their plane while we were going toward each other. I dived out, and did it. I dropped onto his plane and started throwing Satchel charges, I had to go to the front of the plane and throw them so that they would land on the tail (because it was moving pretty fast). After I did that I dived off again (still had my parachute because I didn't open it in order to land on his plane). Before I jumped I detonated the bomb which sent him plummeting as I just dived...


It was damn awesome. Coolest secret agent stunt I've done so far, I doubt I'll ever top it... it was so flawless.

Yeah thats true. I saw that before. But I also saw Vice PD choppers flying around on air patrol as well. Tried to shoot them down but it seems like the the rockets of the hunter just go right through them.

[Scotty]

it would be cool if you could buy a ticket but not get on the plane. Then you could shoot it down with a harrier or fly into it with another plane. Or you could jump on the wings!

[/ZERO\]

Yeah The Wait 4 it to reach max altitude then parachute of it! YAH!

[Michael]

actually, i have PS2 and you are wrong
i know you can buy a ticket
i just want the PC version too, because of this i wrote " Preordered SA PC"

[Jake B]

yeah scotty that would be fun to do:D
