Knife Flights are precision aircraft passages through gaps between buildings while the plane is banked on its side. The city locations are close together, but the approach needs enough runway and altitude control to keep the wings clear.

City locations and dense urban approaches.
The guide number follows the location map. Area and flight-line text identify the gap; completion requires a clean sideways passage that the game registers as a Knife Flight.
Flight School helps with the roll and recovery, and a controllable plane with enough space to turn is easier to manage than a jet in many locations. Save before a run, line up early, and recover to open air immediately after the gap. The checklist is separate from Under the Bridge even though both use aircraft.
FAQ
What makes a Knife Flight count?
You must fly through the marked gap while banking on one side, with both wings clear enough for the game to register the challenge.
Should I use a jet?
A slower aircraft is usually easier to line up and recover. A jet can work, but its speed leaves less room for small corrections.
How does this relate to 100% completion?
The 100% checklist uses a subset of the Knife Flights, while the full set is part of the Close Shave trophy or achievement route.
