The GTA Online San Andreas Flight School Update Now Available

You think you've got what it takes to be awesome? Want to take yourself to the absolute limit – hell, past the limit – and live to high-five on the other side? Get yourself down to The San Andreas Flight School. Grab the stick of the fast and nimble Western Besra training jet and push it to the edge of the envelope. Master absolute air superiority in 10 new solo missions that will make you comfortable in any pilot’s danger zone, including combat maneuvering, low-flying challenges, formation flying and more.
Once it’s ‘mission accomplished’ and you’re out of your heroic new Flight Suit, spend your shore leave buzzing the skies in the luxury Swift helo, or cram your entire squad into the new 16-seater Buckingham Mil-Jet for team transport in style. Hit the silk with a collection of new Chutes and Parachute Bags, and if things get a little out of control, rely on the Reserve Parachute to give you a second chance at that soft landing – or use it to get creative with your precision dives. Later, hit the streets in the shapely Invetero Coquette Classic, available in either hard-top or topless roadster variants for whatever your sea-level speed fix.
And round up your wingmen for new Races, Captures, Parachute Jumps and more, including the three all-new VS Mission modes. Acquire Targets is a kill-the-carrier style mode where opponents fight in P996 Lazers to control one flag; maintain control for as long as you can to rack up points. In G-Rating, compete against other cadets as you fly to pick up 15 flags in both weapons hot and cold environments. Or try out Air Force Zero, where the defending team must protect an aircraft against an attacking team as it flies to the safe LZ.
The San Andreas Flight School Update for GTA Online is now available via automatic update 1.16 for both PS3 and Xbox 360. In addition to everything listed above, today's update also includes a number of other adjustments and fixes for GTA Online. Most notably, all Contact Mission GTA$ and RP awards have been rebalanced so that more difficult missions will earn you greater rewards, GTA$ payouts on replays are no longer reduced and all rewards are now time scaled. For a look at all the changes in this update, please check out the full dossier at Rockstar Support.
Stay tuned for more details on continuing updates to GTA Online, and look out for specifics later this week on the upcoming Event Weekend to commemorate the launch of the San Andreas Flight School Update.

So I like the rebalancing of mission payouts...should switch up peoples grinding a bit...they also took out the half pay for repeats and give bonuses for groups rather than solo.
You can now access your "in limbo" cars through Johnny on the spot.
Tanks show up on the map...yay.
Lesters abilities apply to all passengers in a car...like that.
Possible fix for the prop bug in the creator.
Time formatting now 00:00.000......isnt that what it was before?
Mugging different level players gets different money...wonder what that means.
The custom vehicle you chose for the last race becomes default for the next one? That is bound to cause problems.
The flight school will be an interesting diversion, there also seem to be some other new jobs to do. I will probably buy one of the car but other than that a pretty free update.
Sure am glad they fixed that bank truck constantly spawning issue....again...not.

Don't know if the full patch notes have been posted somewhere so.... support.rockstargames.com/hc/en-us/articles/202968656I'm only really enthused by one thing (although helmet off and no more NPCs on my lawn are cool). Calling stored vehicles from Johnny. I can now sell my obsolete Exemplar, nice boost to the Vette fund What I want to know is if that spot then becomes unusable. Bit lame if so, probably is the case but if you could replace a car there then I'd buy myself a pair of cheap 2 car garages and reap the refund.

load of shite if GTAF whiners can be trusted !! It's uh, underwhelming. No armed vehicles like Hydra or Hunter so aerial combat doesn't change. I bought the Besra and it's a nice stunt plane. The only really interesting thing for me is the Coquette Classic. It looks awesome (I bought both the roofless and standard ones, standard looks great) and it's pretty fast. I have only done a quick test, 4 laps on Hit N Run with Coquette and Z Type. Fastest lap with Z Type was 02:04, fastest lap with Coquette was 02:08. But I'm not experienced with the new Coquette yet so I think I can shave some seconds off. Seems a contender at least.

I might just buy the roofless one anyway.

Check out mine in my garage if you get online, the standard one looks much more awesome than the pics would suggest. I don't think there is a performance difference.

The custom vehicle you chose for the last race becomes default for the next one? That is bound to cause problems. . It helps when we use the chatroom and are late in choosing a car, instead of getting the first car in alphabetical order first up, it now shows the last used car. You still have the ability to choose diff cars tho

The main disappointment for me is that once again, R* have failed to deliver the one thing I hope for in every update. A decent beard. Fingers crossed for 1.17 I guess

Glad they finally announced a firm release date. Madden 15 has been an utter disappointment so far on XBox 1, so maybe I'll revisit some old games for a couple months until GTA 5 comes out. As much as the Dukes, and Dodo sound fun, I'm more pumped for the 100 new songs being added. Just hope Rockstar doesn't mess up the character transfer from 360 to XB1.

It does strike me that R* is really running out of ideas now... That's basically a Carbonisaccro, Thruxer and a Thruti...

I agree with Fachuro . Lol Clicked on the Carbonisaccro image and was immediately kinda disappointed. Thought there was a hint of Coqrano about it myself. Thruxer looks cool but I don't have a use for it.

I quite liked the Carbonissacro. Until I drove it. The most expensive mince ever.
