Burnout Paradise planes just an April fools?

Back in July of last year, Criterion Games mentioned that it had been experimenting with airplanes as a potential Burnout Paradise add-on; however, with new info claiming that an announcement regarding this is due on April 1st, there's suspicion that such an update could be nothing more than a really long-running April Fool's joke. This information comes from the FAQ section on Criterion's website, where it was specifically stated to "check for an exciting announcement on April 1" for more on the inclusion of planes.

5 - Not an April fool's joke
That they were experimenting with planes is not an april fool's joke.

It was confirmed by journalists who visited their offices, including Edge who did a feature on the Year of Paradise.

8 - I really like Burnout Paradise but, I really miss the beauty that is
Burnout 3 takedown, I love the crash junctions, aftertouch, that you can blow up your car...multiple times.I also like structured races with tracks that only have a few shortcuts. It would be really great If they brought back these things for Burnout 6 as a contemporary product along side Paradise.
