Mammoth Dodo in GTA 6: the Seaplane Over the Keys

GTA V’s float plane, flying over the Leonida Keys in Rockstar’s first trailer. Rockstar has not named it; GTA Wiki, GTABase and atlasgta6 all identify it — and give it three different seconds.

Identified in Rockstar’s footage by outside editors; Rockstar has not named it. Rockstar has published no vehicle statistics for GTA 6, so this page prints none.

Is the Dodo in GTA 6? Where it was seen — and the other planes

Each answer carries how settled it is and who settled it. Where nobody has said, the card says that instead of guessing — and says what stays open even after the answer.

Has the Dodo been seen in GTA 6?

Shown, not stated

Yes — in Trailer 1.

A Dodo seaplane flies over the Leonida Keys in Rockstar’s first trailer (Trailer 1). These are identifications made from Rockstar’s own footage — Rockstar has not named the vehicle in any of them.

Still open — Whether it can be driven, bought or modified — none of that shows in a frame.

When does the Dodo appear in GTA 6’s first trailer?

Sources disagree

Sources disagree: GTA Wiki says 0:13, towing a NINE1NINE banner, and 0:34 over the Keys; atlasgta6 says 0:18, over a long bridge in the southern Keys.

GTABase confirms the Dodo in Trailer 1 without a second. GTA Wiki also finds it in Trailer 2 — over Jason, and parked at Brian’s Boat Works & Marina — which no second source we checked repeats. The links open Rockstar’s upload at each claimed second, so the frames can be checked.

Still open — Whether the banner plane and the Keys plane are the same Dodo.

What planes are in GTA 6 so far?

Shown, not stated

Three that two sources place in Rockstar’s material: this Dodo, the Mammatus and the Shamal jet.

The Dodo flies over the Leonida Keys in Trailer 1. The Mammatus is drawn into Rockstar’s Leonida Keys artwork. The Shamal flies over the Vice City sign at Vice City International Airport in a screenshot on Rockstar’s website. None is named by Rockstar.

Still open — Which of them can be flown, and from where.

The Mammatus in GTA 6

What real plane is the Dodo based on?

Said on record

The de Havilland Canada DHC-2 Beaver, with the tail, side windows and floats of a Cessna 185 Skywagon — according to GTA Wiki; GTABase names the Beaver.

GTA Wiki adds that the GTA 6 Dodo looks close to GTA V’s with more detail: lights at the wing centres, a fin antenna, an engine intake, float tensioners and yellow propeller tips. The readings are the community’s, not Rockstar’s.

Has the Dodo been in earlier GTA games?

Stated

Yes — including GTA V and GTA Online.

The name returns from Rockstar’s earlier releases, which GTA Wiki lists for it. What carries over is the name and the maker; whether GTA 6’s model drives or costs the same is not known.

Still open — Whether anything beyond the name and the look carries over.

How much does the Dodo cost in GTA 6?

Nobody has said

Not announced. The same plane costs $500,000 in GTA Online.

Rockstar has published no GTA 6 vehicle prices. $500,000 is the price in GTA Online, the previous game, as GTA Wiki records it; nothing says GTA 6 will keep it.

Still open — The GTA 6 price, and whether it can be bought at all rather than taken.

How we checked this page

GTA Wiki, GTABase and atlasgta6 agree the Dodo is in Trailer 1 and disagree on when: GTA Wiki has 0:13 and 0:34, atlasgta6 0:18. A guide that repeats GTA Wiki word for word was not counted as a second source. The planes list keeps to the three aircraft two sources place in Rockstar's material — the Dodo, the Mammatus and the Shamal.
