In a manner somewhat similar to fixed-wind aircraft, helicopter rotors begin to slow down (which can be heard distinctly) when damaged severely, resulting in reduced speed and manoeuvrability. GTA San Andreas improves helicopter damage realism by allowing helicopters to degrade performance-wise with heavy damage, similar to aircraft. The degree of damage on a helicopter is only indicated by the presence of smoke or fire appearing from the horizontal rotor. By the time helicopters were controllable in GTA Vice City, helicopters may also suffer damage from impact on hard surfaces (with the exception of landing) or other solid objects, and cease to function outright in water if they do not have pontoons (i.e. The earliest known helicopter to possess this weakness are the Police Helicopter and Helicopter in GTA III, which are vulnerable to gunfire or a rocket launcher. In most situations, a helicopter will sustain engine damage, before falling out of the sky and exploding. Helicopters are relatively weak in the entire 3D Universe of Grand Theft Auto, with the exception of Grand Theft Auto San Andreas. In most cases, rear-seat passengers sit on the side of the helicopter while the rear doors are open, infamously known for by the Police in the majority of GTA games. Most helicopters in the GTA series seat 4 occupants 1 pilot, 1 co-pilot and 2 rear passengers. Basic controls consist of the foot pedals and the cyclic- and collective-pitch levers. Within the cockpit, a pilot and copilot control the helicopter. The tail rotor keeps the helicopter stable and prevents either the clockwise or counter-clockwise rotation of the main blades from rotating the helicopter body itself. In simplest form, the principle of rotors spinning at a high speed cause lift, thus lifting the helicopter off the ground, while the angle and pitch of the blades determine the direction of the helicopter. "You want me, huh?", "So kill me!", "Screw you!", ect).Typically, helicopters feature a main body, cockpit, engine bay, tail boom and a number of blades on the main rotor. The protagonists will not shout taunts whilst firing suppressed weapons (eg. When equipped, the attachment dampens the firing sound and suppresses the muzzle flash of the weapon, making it able to perform stealth kills, unless there are witnesses that will alarm the police.
