GTA 6 Vice City Goodyear Blimp: Wingfoot Three Heads to South Florida
On this page
Current status
- Current status: Vice City-wrapped airship photographed and tracked south in mid-October 2026.
- Last verified: October 16, 2026.
- Official sources checked: Miami GTA Tours report (FlightAware + fan photography); Push Square Miami marketing roundup. No Rockstar statement found.
- What is confirmed: The wrap exists on Wingfoot Three; the southbound reposition was underway.
- What is not confirmed yet: Miami overflight dates, campaign length, or who paid.
The aircraft
Reported (Miami GTA Tours):
- Ship: Wingfoot Three, tail N3A, Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company.
- Technically a Zeppelin NT (semi-rigid), commonly called a blimp.
- Livery: Goodyear wordmark and yellow fins kept; lower envelope black with "Vice city" script.
- Early flight photos circulated via airship fan communities before mainstream game sites picked it up.
The route south
Reported: FlightAware data cited by fan outlets shows N3A leaving Wingfoot Lake near Akron, Ohio, on the morning of October 12 toward Winston-Salem, N.C., on a multi-day hop with a ground crew. Watchers expect Pompano Beach Airpark — Goodyear's Florida base — as the destination. Claims that it "arrived in Florida" on specific hours should be checked against FlightAware, not screenshots alone.
Push Square lists the blimp beside cars, banner planes, and beach branding in the same Miami push.
What we still don't know
Miami GTA Tours is explicit about open questions:
- Whether / when it flies over Miami proper.
- How long the Vice City wrap stays.
- Cost and who funded the campaign.
Until Goodyear or Rockstar speak, treat those as unknown, not "confirmed viral facts."
Confirmed vs rumored: Vice City blimp
| Claim | Status |
|---|---|
| Wingfoot Three wears a Vice City GTA 6-style wrap | Reported — photos + Miami GTA Tours |
| Left Ohio Oct 12 toward Florida | Reported — FlightAware via coverage |
| Rockstar issued a blimp press release | Not found |
| Guaranteed Miami Beach flyovers daily | Unconfirmed |
| Part of the wider Miami marketing wave | Analysis — timing fits; agency unstated |
The bottom line
Vice City got a real airship. Look up if you are in South Florida — and verify the track before you drive to the beach for a no-show.
