+==Description==
+The Airtrain is a prop that takes the appearance of a [[Wikipedia:Boeing|Boeing 727]]. In GTA III and GTA Vice City, the Airtrain is not solid. Simply spawning the Airtrain using trainers or modifications will crash the game. The Airtrain's flight path is determined by the ''flight1.dat'' file. In GTA Liberty City Stories it is solid, however, touching it (except the wings) will kill the player and destroy their vehicle. In GTA Vice City Stories it is still solid, but touching it doesn't kill the player. Instead the player will lose [[Health|health]]. In contrast to previous games it appeared in, the plane ''can be'' entered in GTA Vice City Stories due to a bug. If entered the player doesn't have any control of it, but can change the radio stations.
-The name is likely a play on "[[wp:Airbus|Airbus]]", but looks like a Boeing [[wp:Boeing|727]].
-==Trivia==
-* The Airtrain in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas|GTA San Andreas]] is revealed to have performance stats similar to drivable vehicles in the game (see [[Vehicle Stats in GTA San Andreas|vehicle stats in GTA San Andreas]]), but does not appear in the final build of the game. This suggests the vehicle was originally to be developed into a controllable vehicle, but was dropped during development, with the [[AT-400]] succeeding the Airtrain. However, leftovers of the Airtrain can be found within game files, such as its (untextured) model and the aforementioned handling code.
-* In GTA Liberty City Stories, if the player is driving a vehicle toward the Airtrain, and bails out, the vehicle will not explode after crashing into the Airtrain. However, re-entering the vehicle will detonate it, and the player will die or lose a lot of [[Health]].
-* In GTA Vice City Stories the player can enter the Airtrain and can change [[Radio|radio station]] and camera view, though it is impossible to leave or control it.
