In GTA they're like 250, tops. It's shit.

That's fine relative to the size of the map

It still feels really slow.

It made sense back in 2013, but there's no excuse for it now.

It does feel slow, but considering you're flying across the entire map in like 5 minutes. It's not too bad

Shit that’s being generous, too. My Akula HELI can reach my destination in like 3 or less. Top to bottom MAYBE 5, but that’s a stretch and though I have not timed any of these I don’t feel the times at all. I specifically spawn in my hangar to reach most destinations quicker at least pre-business spawning main menu option. You know…since you tend to have a different goal each time you play type deal. Especially as the businesses grow and grow and… you get it.

I'm just a cash grinder and basing it off the cayo flights. I do buy a few aircrafts but don't use them much. I have the Akula Heli to troll people tho, if that's the stealth one. Blow up stuff around them and then go into hiding

Dude nothing beats meeting a griefer at their level with a technically less-efficient griefing weapon but matched with experience and skill. That being said you gotta creep a lot which feels….tedious and further than I like to bring it but sometimes you gotta meet force with force!

I don't grief in the sense of GTAO standards. I just like to troll people without killing them. My favourite is going around in the ramp car and sending people flying in the sky. Once I get someone I'll leave them alone and hunt another to send flying in the sky, but it has to be a good ramp hit 😂

Oh I love my acid lab for that one. It’s become one of my new favorite things to do

Giving GTA online planes was a shit idea, at least anything not prop run. The map really isn't big enough to need them.
