I’m completely stumped by the flight school. Flying through those hoops is impossible for me. Driving school was a piece of cake compared to flight school. Stupid game design to force you to do the flight school.

I finished the **High Noon** mission, by just noticing that he kept driving in circles.  
So I got out of the car and lobbed a few handgrenades under it on it’s next pass.

As for the **Flight School** just keep trying without dying.  
This will make your flight-skill go up, which will make it lot easier to do.

I loved the mission where you had to ride up the mountain with a bike to retrieve some piece of evidence from a witness.  
You needed to get up there and shoot the guys that guarded the witness.  
In the meanwhile the witness would jack a helicopter, so you would have to chase the helicopter down town, land on the highest building, grab a parachute and base-jump down to the street and finally kill the witness.  
I had just finished flight-school and gotten my jet-pack, so I flew up there and came from the other side.  
Before they knew what hit them, I had killed the witness and grabbed the evidende and was on my way back.  
No helicopter-chase, no nothing.

Finished it tonight! The last mission is tough, mostly because a single slip-up means starting over again (and it’s about three or four normal missions in length).

I found the diving school impossible. Never completed it. Flight school was a doddle by comparison.

I must really suck at this because I am having a hell of a time getting past the stupid dancing on the beach mission. Ya know, I bought this game so I could jack cars and go on violent rampages, not so I could try to pass some lame button-pushing contest. I HATE button pushing contests. I’m horrible at them and they seem utterly pointless to me.

If it was an optional mission, that would be fine. But noooo – I have to do my stupid dance to get the next storyline mission. Grrrr.
