Ya I recall one of the magazine reviewers, when showed the demo, claimed it took the guy roughly 6-8min (can't remember the exact time) to fly across the map. Actually I hear one of the reasons why the map is so big is to have lots of room for flying, as there's supposed to be a lot of it in V.

EDIT: Found the quote, The Guardian with Houser:
Quote:
And space is important, space is a big issue. Some have already questioned why GTA V needs to be so huge. But Houser bats the concerns right back. "We wanted to make a big place, as much as anything, to allow you to fly," he laughs. "A lot of the decisions, we're talking about them here on a philosophical level, but they're also practical decisions, too: we're making a game. You have to understand the medium. On an obvious level we wanted somewhere big so you can fly properly – we have a lot of missions that involve flying, in helicopters or whatever, it was logical. Also, Jet skis work better around LA than they would in New York.
