The first time the player could fly the Shamal was in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]. The plane, despite its interior size, can only transport the player. The Shamal is a good choice for people who are just learning to fly jets, as its handling is balanced, and is easy to land on runways. The plane draws its influence from the [[wp:Learjet 60|Learjet 60]]. | The first time the player could fly the Shamal was in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]].

The Shamal in GTA IV and GTA V features an updated design, though very close to the GTA San Andreas iteration. In [[Grand Theft Auto IV]], numerous Shamals can be found at the [[Francis International Airport, Dukes|Francis International Airport]], though they cannot be used by the player. A Shamal 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. It can be concluded that the jets in question are Shamals, as an identical, controllable model would appear in [[Grand Theft Auto V]]. | The Shamal in GTA IV and GTA V features an updated design, though very close to the GTA San Andreas iteration.

The Shamal is now a controllable aeroplane in GTA V, available in different liveries ([[Air Emu]], white and blue; [[Air Herler]], white and blue; [[FlyUS]], white, red, and blue; and [[MyFly]], white and red). It retains the good handling and performance of its GTA San Andreas rendition, although it has ceded the fastest civilian jet title to the [[Vestra]] as of the Business Update. Also introduced alongside the Shamal is its private jet cousin, the [[Luxor]]. | The Shamal is now a controllable aeroplane in GTA V, available in different liveries ([[Air Emu]], white and blue; [[Air Herler]], white and blue; [[FlyUS]], white, red, and blue; and [[MyFly]], white and red).

====Performance==== | |||
The Shamal retains its easy handling from GTA: San Andreas. It is ideal for crew transport where a Titan is too large. As a jet, it lacks the characteristic nose-down sinking found in the game's propeller planes; it is thus suitable for those learning to fly light jets. | |||
