Vice City takes to the sky: photos show Goodyear’s GTA 6 blimp in flight

The Vice City airship is no longer just a hangar sighting. Photographs published by GTAVice show a Goodyear blimp airborne with large pink Vice City lettering and a GTA VI emblem. The site credits the pictures to Roger Durfee and the Goodyear Blimp Fan Club, and identifies the aircraft as Wingfoot Three, registration N3A.

What the photographs establish

The inspected image shows Vice City lettering along the side of the airborne craft, a VI emblem near the nose and Goodyear branding towards the tail. The livery uses the game campaign’s pink and purple palette. Those visible details are enough to document the branded aircraft in flight. They do not disclose the price, duration or contractual terms of the advertising arrangement, and this article does not assign a financial value to it.

Wingfoot Three and the reported southbound flight

GTAVice identifies the aircraft as Goodyear’s Wingfoot Three, N3A, and reports flight tracking from Ohio towards North Carolina on October 12. It describes Florida as a possible next destination, not a confirmed booking. That is dated reporting about a route, not a live position for the aircraft on October 13. We are not publishing an arrival time, a Florida event location or a promise that the blimp will appear at a particular match. Readers should look for an operator or event-organiser announcement before making travel plans.

A moving advert, separate from the beach negotiations

The sighting adds a different format to the GTA VI rollout: an advert that can move between locations rather than a fixed street installation. It should not be used as evidence that Miami Beach’s proposed branding agreement has been signed, or that a county-level advertising proposal has been approved. The airship, stadium placements and local-government negotiations are different parts of the campaign with different sources and timetables.

A real-world photo, not a new vehicle reveal

The photograph reproduced here is credited to Roger Durfee through GTAVice’s report and the Goodyear Blimp Fan Club. Its subject is a real aircraft carrying Vice City artwork. It does not reveal whether a similar blimp will be flyable in GTA VI, whether it appears in a mission or whether any related in-game item exists. Those would require separate game information. The confirmed news here is narrower and still notable: the branded airship has been photographed in the air.
