Dodo
Overview
Dodo is a small plane, that apeared in both GTA3 and San Andreas, but in GTA3 it's wings were cut off in order to make it unable to fly. It looks like Cessna plane, it is always red and white.
Handling
Basicly Dodo with or without wings behave the same on ground - Faster it drives, more unstable it is. GTA3 Dodo could accelerate only when touching ground, in air it has working brakes. In air it is very unstable, mainly because it turns very fast. New, San Andreas Dodo is fully functional plane, which is one of the slowest planes in game. It is quite stable in air.
Tricks
GTA3 Dodo was design to do short jumps, but it is possible to fly with it. When accelerating press and hold button "dodo down", and when you will see sparks release it and when you are in air try to stay at same height in order not to slow down when raising. When you feel loosing control over it try diving and then going up - it usually grants you extra speed.
