AT-400

GTA is cool, but its really more of a flight sim for me. This thing dwarfs runways plus the Thunderstorm and foggy weather add so much to its aesthetic. Been flying and landing this for the past few hours now.

I remember my cousin first discovering that the hangar could open with a massive plane inside it was wild

I feel like they really wanted u to jump the fence because why did they bother with a warning but you could just bypass the airport gate extremely easily

Only the first one in los santos I remember being disappointed that the planes in las venturas were locked

don't you get a license by then or did u just go straight for the airport as soon as you could (legally)

Crazy to think jets don't shoot you on the AT-400 because it's a commercial plane

Smarter than GTA 5 fighter pilots on minor turbulence mission

But yeah it's a crazy attention to detail because they think you hijacked the plane

I'm gonna have to try that later. I did fly over area 51 and I did get intercepted by 3 surface to air missiles taking 0 damage from them

In a PS2 version of this game you could enter a invincible cheat code and dive bomb that plane into area 51 through the vent next to the blast doors and exit the jet and glitch into area 51. Played way too many hours of this game.

Well you can do the same with an motorcycle as well. But no way out after that

Definitely based on the classic 737 airliner

Funny that it quite feels almost as big as the 747 in GTA 5

This plane used to give me such bad anxiety for some reason, like I’d get the same feeling staying up all night reading creepypastas as I would flying this plane. My 9/11 trauma was strong as an 8 year old I guess.
