In other GTA games, business jets resembling the Shamal first appeared in [[Grand Theft Auto III]] and then [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City]]; however, the player could not fly the plane. The plane has also been depicted in take-off and landing in [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]] and [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]]; in GTA Liberty City Stories, the player can stand on the plane's wing while it's accelerating to fly away, but will most likely fall after a while, and in GTA Vice City Stories, the plane is seen entering and exiting [[Escobar International Airport]] from time to time. A glitch allows the player to enter the plane in GTA Vice City Stories, but it is not controllable. Similarly, a business jet is used as an escape vehicle during a cutscene of [[Grand Theft Auto Advance]]'s [[Freedom Flies|final mission]].

In [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], business jets still remain uncontrollable (nor can any other planes be flown) but such vehicles can still be found at [[Francis International Airport, Dukes|Francis International Airport]], featuring an updated design. One such plane is used by [[Kenny Petrovic]] during the [[Hangman's NOOSE]] [[Multiplayer in GTA IV|multiplayer]] mission wherein up to four players must hold back [[NOOSE]] units and escort Petrovic from his jet at Francis International Airport to a safepoint.

The first trailer for [[Grand Theft Auto V]] depicts of a private jet-like airplane that whizzes over [[Los Santos]] near the end of the trailer. Its name is not confirmed as of yet, nor it is known as of yet if it can be controlled by the player.
