A Beagle in GTA San Andreas.

The Beagle is an airplane found in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

Description

The Beagle is a twin engine turbo-prop airplane based on the Britten-Norman BN-2 Islander. Although very slow, the Beagle can turn much faster than any other airplane in GTA San Andreas, despite not letting the player retract the landing gear. The Beagle still flies slow and can accommodate only one extra passenger despite having 10 seats. Being a civilian model plane, the Beagle has no form of defense. Its landing gears are also unable to retract in flight.

It is arguably the most under-used plane in GTA San Andreas despite its acceptable handling considering its large size, as well as its short takeoff distance. Other than that, they are found flying all over the state and one occasionally crashes at the highest point on Mount Chiliad (although it doesn't crash all the time as it can perform a U-Turn).

Also when the Beagle appears in Fort Carson, the plane can be stuck between the small house next to it and a large wooden pole. However on very rare occasions the plane can be seen on the road not between the two objects, where most of the time if you try to get the plane out, between the objects it blows up.

Locations

  • Parked by the runway in Easter Bay International Airport, San Fierro.
  • Occasionally spawned in Fort Carson, exploding in many occasions (it's a bug or developer's mistake).
  • Also, the Beagle can also be found flying low over the player, but this mostly happens in the small desert and countryside towns.
