5. Steal The AT-400
You couldn't fly planes in GTA IV, for very obvious 9/11 shaped reasons. Even if we didn't agree with this choice, we could all understand it. Yet still, with the option to take to the heavens shorn from your grasp, you missed it terribly. There was a certain giddy thrill which came with grabbing a Shamal and skimming the waves in some of the most profound idiocy ever committed to aeronautics. And of course, when you found the Hydra, all sorts of fun and games commenced. But though these were fun and all, they weren't a patch on the AT-400 jumbo jet. For those of you who didn't know of this leviathan's existence yes, it exists, and it's a blast in a way only flying an airborne goliath can be. Always parked in a giant hangar in the corner of Las Venturas airport and behind the slowest opening door you've ever witnessed, actually taking it to the sky was a challenge in itself, and as for landing the damn thing forget about it. I've seen braver men that you try, and they've always failed hard. But actually piloting the beast in the air was tremendous , and made better when you had over four-stars-worth of police after you. Possessing a wingspan the size of several continents and able to shrug off a missile like a feather duster, you could attempt to paw at the Hydras endeavouring to bring you down like an angry giant. An airborne angry giant. If you haven't body-slammed a Hydra using nought but your fuselage, you haven't lived.
