- For the mission, see Verdant Meadows (mission).
Verdant Meadows is an abandoned airstrip in Bone County, San Andreas that is in use from time to time for 'Black Budget' operations by different factions of the U.S. Government. It is the location of Flight School - in which participation is a compulsory part of the core storyline. CJ buys the Verdant Meadows Airstrip when doing missions for Mike Toreno. The abandoned AC tower acts as a safe house for the player. The airstrip includes a small garage on-site and a large hangar which acts as a garage to save an aircraft in. While the hangar is very large, it can only store four vehicles. Verdant Meadows is based on aircraft bone yards.
The landing strip can be used to land aircraft like the other airports, and when acquired it shows up as a landing strip. However, there is a no-fly zone to the south, and flying over the area will result in a five star wanted level and surface to air missiles being fired at your aircraft.
Vehicles
- Hydra (after completing the mission Vertical Bird)
- Jetpack (available after the mission Black Project)
- Leviathan (after completing the mission Up, Up and Away!)
- PCJ-600
- Rustler (after completion of the Flight School with all bronze medals or higher achieved)
- Stunt Plane (after completion of the Flight School with all silver medals or higher achieved)
- Hunter (after completion of the Flight School with all gold medals achieved)
Note: When both the Hunter and Leviathan are unlocked, only one of them can spawn at a time. Arrive from the west to spawn the Hunter and arrive from the east to spawn the Leviathan.
Weapons and Pickups
- Body Armor - Located inside one of the aircraft fuselages on the north-central portion of the meadows
- Knife - Located near the Snake Farm
- Micro Uzi - Inside one of the aircraft fuselages near the south-westernmost aircraft
Other
Trivia
- The name "Verdant Meadows" means "full of green vegetation" but the airstrip is the opposite, implying that the name is a joke.
- Mike Toreno claims it previously belonged to Russians, implying that it might have been used as a place for spies of the former Soviet Union to spy on Area 69.
- In the beta version, Verdant Meadows didn't exist.
- Verdant Meadows makes an appearance on CNT in Grand Theft Auto IV.
