While fans are still waiting for the highly anticipated Heists update to be released, they can at least now enjoy some added aviation fun, with Rockstar also teasing an upcoming weekend event to celebrate the new content.


Launching today on Xbox 360 and Playstation 3, the Flight School update brings new jets and helicopters to San Andreas that can be used in new aerial solo challenges.


Two Planes and one Helicopter have also been added to the Elitas website, with players now able to buy the Buckingham Mil-Jet (16-seater), Western Besra, and the Buckingham Swift.


Fresh parachute designs are also now available, along with a new land vehicle, the Invetero Coquette Classic.


The update gives players the chance to purchase and equip a reserve Parachute at Ammu-Nation, with different canopy designs for their primary and reserve chutes can be chosen.


Air force attire has also been added, with the fighter pilot flight suit purchasable at all clothes stores.


The new jets and helicopters will also be available in Races, Captures and Parachute Jumps co-op jobs.


Rockstar released a statement revealing the extent of the new update: “Acquire Targets is a kill-the-carrier style mode where opponents fight in P996 Lazers to control one flag; maintain control for as long as you can to rack up points.


“In G-Rating, compete against other cadets as you fly to pick up 15 flags in both weapons hot and cold environments.


“Try out Air Force Zero, where the defending team must protect an aircraft against an attacking team as it flies to the safe LZ.



Rockstar have also revealed other adjustments and fixes for GTA Online, which will see a rebalancing of how players make money from missions.

“All Contact Mission GTA$ and RP awards have been rebalanced so that more difficult missions will earn you greater rewards, GTA$ payouts on replays are no longer reduced and all rewards are now time scaled,” the statement read.


“The potential cash payouts have increased significantly overall, although some specific missions have been reduced as a result of the rebalance.”

Pakistan-Idea to State and Reality

Pakistan-Idea to State and Reality By Dr. Minhaj Qidwai Stephen Philip Cohen, in The Idea of Pakistan, cites Al-Biruni as a source of ideas for Jinnah and Ayub Khan. Al-Biruni’s India is admittedly one of the most penetrative accounts of Indian society, but a society of the 11th century, not the 20th. He also observed that the “Hindus are totally different from the Muslims in religion. This is, of course, true but it isn’t such a profound observation as to have informed either Jinnah or the Field Marshal of what they were unaware. Jinnah wanted a secular dressing, whereas Ayub made it Islamic. Did this deviance had an impact on Pakistan? Did it made a difference between a “right government…which aims at general good” and “a deviation…which aims at its own good”. Was Pakistani state’s preoccupation with “its own good” resulted in a near-permanent deviation of governance itself? Above all, what was the need for creation of Pakistan. With the Second World War, Atlantic charter was signed ...
