Are flying vehicles available in gta v story mode?

In Grand Theft Auto V's story mode, flying vehicles do exist but are not as readily available as in GTA Online. During certain missions, players can access helicopters, planes, and other aircraft, such as the Buzzard attack helicopter in 'The Merryweather Heist' or jets during the 'Minor Turbulence' mission. These vehicles are typically mission-specific and cannot be freely purchased or spawned at will. Unlike GTA Online, where players can buy flying vehicles through in-game currency or interactions, the story mode restricts aerial vehicle access to scripted events and objectives. While some vehicles like the Buzzard can be acquired during missions, they are not part of the standard vehicle roster available outside of these contexts. The game does include a few flying vehicles in the story mode, but their availability is controlled and situational rather than open-ended.
