The '''Raindance''' is a medium-sized transport helicopter that is found on [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]. It is based on the Sikorsky S-70, the civilian model of the famous UH-60 Blackhawk. It is always set with permanent colors, which are white, yellow and blue. It is a slower helicopter compared to the Maverick or Sparrow, but is the best handling helicopter on the game. It is found parked in various places, like the [[Easter Bay International Airport|Easter Bay Airport]] in [[San Fierro]] (although locked), Santa Maria beach, and on one of the hospitals roofs. It has no special features, and no form of defense, plus it handling is uneven, because it has a tendency of flipping upside down.
