Hey gang, I can't remember if I posted this when I found out three odd
weeks ago, so I'm posting again. The Maverick helicopter in "False
Idols" can be obtained, but only with the use of cheats.

It's been widely, and falsely, reported on some of the forums that all
air physics were taken out of the PS2 port, but it isn't true.

Cheers,
Rob

In the meantime someone worked out how to get it without cheats:

It is fairly easy too.
The handling is a bit dodgy though and the camera controls is a bit mixed up
with the flight controls, - so I guess that R* never bothered with the
details. It won't climb very high either.

I did initially try for another way, thinking that if I knew where that
Faith chick departs from and what route she follows it'll be easy to
line up a snatch in mid-air.

I've already got one saved, but I think I'm going to continue from a
strategic save and try this. I need to mess around with more missions,
I might even make a crude map denoting buildings and other structures
without collision detection.

Cheers,
Rob
