Intercept the arriving jet in a Dodo, board it through the rear marker and fly it back to Las Venturas. Gain altitude early so you can line up the interception before the jet reaches the airport.

Mission walkthrough
-
Take the Dodo
Drive to the airport and enter the plane in the marked hangar. Use the runway to accelerate, lift off smoothly and retract the landing gear.
-
Climb toward the incoming jet
Head toward the target while gaining enough altitude. Avoid a steep climb that drains speed and leaves the Dodo struggling below the interception height.
-
Turn behind the jet
As the target approaches, arrange your turn so you end up behind its tail at a similar height. Fly into the marker behind the aircraft. A head-on pass or contact with the fuselage does not trigger the boarding.
-
Clear the cabin
During the onboard gunfight, use the available cover positions and eliminate the hitmen before the pilot. Follow the sequence until CJ gains control of the jet.
-
Land at Las Venturas
Return to the airport, lower the landing gear and make a stable runway landing to finish the mission.
Key point
If the Dodo is far below the target, start the next attempt with an earlier climb. Chasing from behind after a badly aligned first pass gives the slower plane little room to recover.
