well I knew that. Im just saying, that when in hover mode, its REALLY hard to do vtol. (--[[User:GTAddict|GTAddict]] 06:45, September 26, 2009 (UTC)) | well I knew that.

It depends on how well you can execute the VTOL. Some people find it hard, but I for one find it INCREDIBLY easy. It depends on how long you've been playing the game and flying h (years in my case). [[User:Montybrady|Montybrady]] 01:49, July 26, 2010 (UTC) | |||

In case anyone was wondering, the numbers on the tail denote the year of build followed by serial number. The number shown on the example picture means that aircraft was built either in 2007 or 1907, one of which is unlikely and the other impossible with the year the game is supposed to be based. | In case anyone was wondering, the numbers on the tail denote the year of build followed by serial number.

What? they're just numbers. If we had Harriers in 1907, wow, come WWI, we'd deal a big whoopin'. If a fire truck has 69 on it, it doesn't mean it was made in 1969 (just engine # 69).--[[User:Thescarydude|Thescarydude]] 23:16, October 11, 2009 (UTC) | :What? they're just numbers.

If correct, I think that counts as an oversight on the artists' parts. But don't forget this is a military aircraft, so the serial/numbering systems are different. [[User:Gboyers|Gboyers]] <sup>[[User_talk:Gboyers|talk]]</sup> 00:57, October 12, 2009 (UTC) | |||
That's the numbering system the military uses for identification. I'm actually not sure what the civilian sector uses. I imagine it is an oversight by the artists and not anything intentional, just thought I'd point it out. | |||
Where did you get that info on the numbering? I have looked up pictures of Harriers and they don't seem to follow that rule | |||

I'm in the Air Force, that's how we number them, but after a two second Google search I came across [http://home.att.net/~jbaugher/navyserials.html this] and suddenly feel very stupid. Apparently the Navy just counts their aircraft for their serial numbers. | |||

I (personally) don't think this is the best. Shamals are very fast and have excellent handling, ATs are near Industructable and the StuntPlane has the best Handling. The Hydra hardly moves, it took me 4 minutes to get from the Fort Carson Safehouse to San Fierro Airport whereas in the Shamal it took 1 minute. :/. --[[User:Khan1998stevewhite|Khan1998stevewhite]] 14:34, 9 January 2011 (UTC) | |||
:Best in what? Speed? All jets in this game has an upper limit in speed. That means no jet can be faster than another, but acceleration can differ.-'''[[User:Spaceeinstein|spaceeinstein]]''' 19:35, 9 January 2011 (UTC) | |||
