[[Carl Johnson|CJ]] [[Verdant Meadows (mission)|buys]] the Verdant Meadows Airstrip when doing missions for [[Mike Toreno]]. The abandoned AC tower acts as a [[safehouse]] for the player. The airstrip includes a small garage on-site and a large hangar which acts as a garage to save aircraft in. While the hangar is very large, it can only store four vehicles. The airstrip is about a quarter mile long and about forty yards wide{{?}}. Verdant Meadows is based on [[wp:Aircraft boneyard|aircraft boneyards]]. | ||
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 [[Area 69|no-fly zone]] to the south, and flying over the area will result in a five star [[Wanted Level in GTA III Era|wanted level]] and [[Surface-to-Air Missile|surface to air missiles]] being fired at your aircraft. | |||
