	~~{{lowercase title}}~~		A '''flight path''' is a set of points that plots the path for an NPC flying vehicle in [[Grand Theft Auto III]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]]. It is defined in a <code>flight*.dat</code> file located in the <code>\data\paths\</code> directory. The following files contain paths for these flying vehicles:

-The following is for GTA3 only. Opcode [[0358]] is used to create the Dodo in GTA3 to follow the path from the flight4.dat file. Opcode [[0359]] checks if the Dodo is destroyed. Opcode [[033A]] creates the Dodo in GTA3 to follow the path from the flight3.dat file. Opcode [[033B]] checks if the Dodo landed on the ground and opcode [[033C]] checks if the Dodo is destroyed.
