The Cuban 800 is a airplane in Grand Theft Auto V.
Description
History
The Cuban 800 was first mentioned in a vehicle.ide file in Max Payne 3, making its first appearance in the second trailer.
Design
The aeroplane appears to be based on the Cessna 310. It is available in black (rare), red-and-white (rare, junky paint finish only), and blue-and-white (common, junky paint finish only).
Performance
The Cuban 800 is powered by two turboprop engines, which are good enough to propel the plane forward, and nothing more. Manoeuvrability of the plane in the air is noticeably slow because of the plane's heaviness. In particular, the Cuban 800 has a heavy nose that causes it to sink constantly; the player has to constantly adjust altitude to prevent it from crashing unexpectedly. In an emergency situation, it may be hard to glide the plane to a successful landing. Should the plane lose an engine in the air, manoeuvrability and performance will be severely affected, and it is best to land the plane as soon as possible. The plane is not light enough to take off on one engine either-the player may be able to successfully rotate and lift off, but the bulkiness of the plane causes it to land after.
