Grand Theft Auto Online Releases Oct. 1st

Rockstar announced the "San Andreas Flight School" Update today, which will be pushed live on August 19th, 2014. Included in the update are several new vehicles, including a new fighter jet, helicopter and sports car modeled after the 1980's Corvette Stingray. Despite missing a great opportunity to include the song "Danger Zone" in their teaser ( Kenny Loggins is your DJ, Rockstar - come on!), we got to see a whole lot of this new update in action.
00:09 - After some great 80's-style establishing shots of various flight control towers, we get our first look at the newest additions to the GTA V / Online vehicle roster. The new fighter jet, featuring a single-occupancy cockpit and rear-mounted jet engine, could be styled after either the Russian Mig-21 or the USAF F-5. The sports car parked in front of the jet is a classic version of the Coquette - modeled after the iconic real-world Corvette Stingray.
00:26 - While flying a fighter jet without crashing is indeed an impressive feat, what's more impressive is the ability to fly it through a bridge. While it could just be the result of a daredevil demo pilot, this could also mean that precision flying will become a much larger part of races and challenges.
00:29 - While the Vestra or Biplane could accommodate one or two passengers, we see here a passenger jet full of not one or two, but twelve characters. Hopefully this indicates that we'll be able to cart around our entire crew - then bail out and send them careening to their deaths while we parachute away, laughing maniacally.
00:31 - The Buzzard attack chopper landing on the bed of a moving truck could just be some precision stuntwork, but it also might hint at new missions involving aerial expertise will be added to Rockstar's roster.
00:47 - The new helicopter, which appears to be modeled after the Agusta A109A, can be seen flying in a pack over the Alamo Sea.
00:51 - A new land race around LSX airport features the new Coquette and several other vintage sports cars.
00:58 - The new "patriotic" parachute bags, which can be customized with various flags from around the world - unfortunately, it doesn't seem likely that the parachutes will also look like a nation's flag when opened midair.
And here's the original trailer
