Pilot School

Flight tests at Verdant Meadows (part of Learning to Fly).

Area
Verdant Meadows

Overview

The Pilot School at the Verdant Meadows airfield is a set of ten flying lessons covering planes, helicopters and parachuting. It is played through the story mission Learning to Fly and earns CJ his pilot's license, which allows him into airports without a wanted level.

Walkthrough

  1. Use the TV in the airfield office to start the lessons.
  2. Work through take-offs, landings, circuits, helicopter control, target shooting, aerobatics and a parachute jump.
  3. Complete each lesson with at least a bronze medal.
  4. Retry lessons to improve your medals.

Tips

  • Fly smoothly; sudden movements cost points.
  • Line up with the runway early on landing approaches.
  • Open the parachute well above the target and steer gently.

CJ receives a pilot's license. All bronze unlocks a Rustler, all silver a Stuntplane, and all gold a Hunter.
