"Grand Theft Auto 3 -- Is flying the DODO far impossible?"

I am at the third island, not by cheat or anything, but I can not figure out how to fly the DODO airplane. I have herd it was possible to fly all the way to Portland from the air port, but how? Everytime I take off the plane will go up in the air for maybe 10 seconds and then dive back down. How do you fly far with out the plane crashing?

i got 55 secs today, i managed to fly it from the airport right over to new port i was well proud :)

would of been longer but i stupidly went over one of those slowmo jump thing so i could see where i was :(


it's fun though :)

I really don't believe this. I mean even if you could do it who would want to sit and control it for that long. Maybe if you said like 600 seconds, I mean that right there is 10 minutes.

dodos weren't meant to fly this is just very very wrong. no wonder they're extinct now thinking they could fly. crazy birds

check out how long this guy was in the air for ...theres also some other cool GTA3 stuff at the bottom of the page aswell

like how to fly the dodo and pics of him flying close to other planes

I am getting better at flying it, i got about 30 seconds once but when i tap down it will still loose balance, what do i do then.

I do hope everyone knows the dodo was famous for being a flightless bird...

All you have to do is - drive up the run-way hold the down button on the D-pad. soon you will see sparks. When you do let go and the plane will bounce up. Keep tapping the down button once your up, but not too much, just so that the plane stays straight. If the plane starts to fall slightly, let it. If you press up it will just slow down and stall.
It might take a little practise you will get it eventually ;)

I have herd that you have to drop your nose or somthing like that but when i take off from the airport i cant even make it to shore across the ocean. What am i doing wrong?
