Helicopters at Verdant meadows

I finally got around to finishing flight school with 100% on everything
(I wanted to get the Hunter).  Do the two helicopters not both show up
at the same time?  I've never seen both the Hunter and that big one I
got for some mission reward.  If so, that's disappointing.  Not that I
ever fly that big one, but it would be neat to see both of them sitting
there at the same time.  If they both don't show up at the same time, I
assume it's some random toss of the coin as to which one spawns.  Or is
a time based thing?

They don't both spawn at the same time.
Usually it's the Leviathan that spawns if you approach from the east and the
Hunter if you come from the west.

Funny...  I don't recall *EVER* seeing a Hunter there.  Only the big'un...  
Maybe I'm too set in my ways that I always approach from the east...

For the Hunter to spawn you need to get all golds.

I don't know what you need to do to get the Leviathan, but one of the
planes spawn after you buy it. Chances are the Leviathan is the same.

Cheers,

The Leviathan spawns after completing "Up, Up, And Away!".
Too bad it doesn't keep the magnet.

Ah, that's right. The other plane is there either before or after the
first Verdant Meadows mission "N.O.E." for Toreno. I think the
Stuntplane could be a reward for the flight school, but could be wrong.

The Leviathan's magnet wouldn't really be too useful in any case. The
only things it can haul properly are motorcycles and the mission
Securicar.

Everything is too heavy IIRC.

Cheers,
Rob

Airstrip spawns:

Flight school >= Bronze: Rustler
Flight school >= Silver: Stuntplane
Flight school = Gold: Hunter
Up, up and away: Leviathan
Vertical Bird: Hydra
Green Goo?: Jetpack

It can lift small utility vehicles as well, - like forklift, baggage car
etc.

Did you get "all gold" on flying school?

(The awards, not the chocolates)

Nope...  I guess that explains it...
