The '''AT-400''' is a [[Fixed-Wing Aircraft|jet airliner]] featured in ''[[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]'' and the largest vehicle in the game. It is the first controllable airliner in the series and the second airliner that makes an appearance in the series, following the uncontrollable [[Airtrain]]. They are frequently found flying between cities and are used to serve multiple lines between the cities inside [[San Andreas (3D Universe)|San Andreas]].
 
The '''AT-400''' is a [[Fixed-Wing Aircraft|jet airliner]] in ''[[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]''.
 
   
 
== Description ==
 
== Description ==
Based on the [[wp:Boeing 737-400#737-400|Boeing 737-400]] commercial jet, the AT-400's enormous size and sluggish response makes the plane harder to control, similar to the [[Andromada]]. Nevertheless, the AT-400 can reach impressively high speeds in the air and can in fact be used to execute stunts, including barrel rolls and loop-the-loops. Caution should be exercised when the plane is on the ground; it easily gains a lot of momentum and can be difficult to bring it to a stop once it gets going.
+
The AT-400 is mainly based on the [[wp:Boeing 737 Classic#737-400|Boeing 737-400]] commercial airliner, an accurate rendition as the 737-400 began servicing in 1988, four years before the game's set. The aircraft is obviously the biggest vehicle of the game, and is unrealistically much bigger than the [[Andromada]]. The only known operator of this aircraft is the [[Juank Air]], however, unlike the [[Nevada]], it does not feature the Juank Air livery, and instead possesses a two-tones body paintjob, which exists in four different liveries.
   
 
A primary disadvantage of this plane is once the player lands and exits, getting back in is difficult because the door is very high from the ground. The only ways one can get back in are to find a [[Baggage]] with [[Towing#GTA San Andreas 2|a ladder]] attached to the back, land the plane at [[Las Venturas Airport]] and go to the hangar again, or find a large van such as a [[Yankee]] and jump over it, using its hood as a platform.

The AT-400 is one of the toughest vehicles of the game (not as tough as the [[Rhino]] however), being able to withstand between 8 to 11 hits from the [[Surface-to-Air Missile|SAM sites]] before blowing up and falling from the sky.

Template:Infobox vehicles The AT-400 is a jet airliner featured in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and the largest vehicle in the game. It is the first controllable airliner in the series and the second airliner that makes an appearance in the series, following the uncontrollable Airtrain. They are frequently found flying between cities and are used to serve multiple lines between the cities inside San Andreas.

Description

The AT-400 is mainly based on the Boeing 737-400 commercial airliner, an accurate rendition as the 737-400 began servicing in 1988, four years before the game's set. The aircraft is obviously the biggest vehicle of the game, and is unrealistically much bigger than the Andromada. The only known operator of this aircraft is the Juank Air, however, unlike the Nevada, it does not feature the Juank Air livery, and instead possesses a two-tones body paintjob, which exists in four different liveries.

A primary disadvantage of this plane is once the player lands and exits, getting back in is difficult because the door is very high from the ground. The only ways one can get back in are to find a Baggage with a ladder attached to the back, land the plane at Las Venturas Airport and go to the hangar again, or find a large van such as a Yankee and jump over it, using its hood as a platform.

Performance

The AT-400's enormous size and sluggish response makes the plane harder to control, similar to the Andromada. Nevertheless, the AT-400 can reach impressively high speeds in the air and can in fact be used to execute stunts, including barrel rolls and loop-the-loops. Caution should be exercised when the plane is on the ground; it easily gains a lot of momentum and can be difficult to bring it to a stop once it gets going. Unlike most other planes, the AT-400 can be flown over Area 69 with less chance of being shot down by homing missiles, providing you don't hang around. The AT-400 is one of the toughest vehicles of the game (not as tough as the Rhino however), being able to withstand between 8 to 11 hits from the SAM sites before blowing up and falling from the sky.

Paintjob

The AT-400 features four different sets of paintjobs. The jet has a two-tones body style, the first color covering the sides of the fuselage, the wings, the stabilizers and the rear part of the engines. The other color covers the rest: the upper and the bottom of the fuselage, the tail and the front part of the engines.

The possible paintjobs are:

Locations

As a controllable vehicle, the plane is considerably rare, appearing in only one location; a large hangar in southeast Las Venturas Airport, which can be opened by approaching it. Regardless, the plane does not always spawn in the hangar.

It is used for paid commercial flights between cities in San Andreas. AT-400s can be sometimes encountered flying high in the sky, however they cannot be stolen on PC Editions.

iPad Edition Hijacking Procedure

It is possible to hijack the plane in the iPad version by boarding the plane (Costs $500) on a flight from a domestic airport. After take-off, wait until the 'Jump from Plane' symbol appears. Now click the home screen button on the iPad itself, open another app and use the other app for a few minutes. Upon returning to the game, the starting menu must re-appear. By resuming the game, Carl will have glitched to the cockpit and is now flying the plane.
