Grand Theft Auto 5 – McKenzie Airfield Arms Trafficking Air Mission: The Train and Boat Bombing Run

In this video, we will guide you through the fourth Grand Theft Auto 5 story mode mission: The Train and Boat Bombing Run. This mission is a part of the Arms Trafficking Air mission series that features five unique missions that are great for maximizing your cash. The first five missions are all once-off, so it’s worth investing time to complete them with bonuses. From the sixth mission onwards, you will rotate between three standard drop missions.

To successfully complete this mission, you need to complete it with all bonuses intact. Although there is no gold for this mission, it can be a little challenging to complete it with all bonuses intact. In this guide, we will show you how to master this mission with ease.

Starting the Mission

When you start the mission, pull out of the hangar as soon as possible by yanking the stick to get the Cuban moving. Once you’re in the air, pull up and bank left. Gear up by clicking G on your keyboard or the left thumbstick for PlayStation and Xbox.

You need to go straight across the Los Santos County line and line yourself up with the railway tracks. To avoid eyeballing, use your mini-map for targeting. Give yourself plenty of room when lining up with the railway tracks. As soon as you get close to the train, drop the bomb.

Bombing the Train and Boats

After bombing the train, gain some altitude and bank around to the right. You need to fly over the gaps in-between the mountains towards the bridge that leads to the boats. Once again, it can be challenging to eyeball the boats, so use your minimap to guide you. Consider easing off the gas as you make your approach to slow the plane down to avoid crashing it. Drop the bombs once you are sure that you are over the boats.

Heading Back to the Airfield

Gaining altitude, fly above the eddies, and head back to the airfield. Since you’re on this side of the airfield, you don’t need to bank too hard. Line yourself up straight-on with the airfield to save time. Gear down by clicking G on your keyboard, or your left thumbstick on PlayStation and Xbox.

By now, you are probably coming in a bit too hot, but you can still work with it. Steer towards the hanger and drop it down, ensuring that you don’t get caught in the mud. No matter your speed or how hard you hit the hanger, it will slow you down immediately. You’ll skid to a stop, and you’ll have passed the mission with full bonuses within four minutes.

Conclusion

The Train and Boat Bombing Run is one of several Air Trafficking missions in Grand Theft Auto 5. Completing it can be challenging, but with our guide, you are sure to succeed with all bonuses intact.

arms trafficking air mission the train and boat bombing run before we dive in if you’re new to
the channel we do how-to guides news and giveaways so consider subscribing and ringing the bell to
stay up to date the first five air trafficking missions are all once off so you should take the
time to get the bonuses and really enjoy them from mission six onwards you just rotate between three
standard drop missions and while there’s no gold in this one per se it can be a little challenging
to get through it with all of your bonuses intact so let’s pick it up as we’re pulling out of the
hanger so again as previously yank that stick and get the cuban moving as soon as possible pull up
and then we want to bank left as soon as we’re in the air so gear up so that’s g on your keyboard or
the click the left thumbstick for playstation xbox we want to go straight across the lmo c
and line ourselves up with the railway tracks now as with previous runs you want to use your mini
map for targeting rather than trying to eyeball this line yourself up here with the railroad
rail way i should say and give ourselves plenty of room and as soon as you get close to that train
drop that bomb there it is so that’s all squared away all right we can put a little
bit of altitude up and then bank around to the right and we’re heading towards the mountains or
the gaps there in between the mountains the valleys and we’re going to make an approach
under a bridge towards some boats so again on the targeting trying to eyeball this is really really
hard i found it’s not terribly helpful at all you can use your b button or the the extra view
if you’d like to but i’m finding that i’m quite low when i’m taking these runs and that can result
in crashing the plane so instead ease off the gas as you make your approach to slow the plane down
and then use your minimap to gauge when to drop the bombs rather than trying to eyeball it we can
see the bridge off the in the distance there and the cuban is really really squirrelly underneath
or sorry under these conditions but it’s good practice for a bit later and we have got some
weather coming in as well which probably isn’t helping its handling all right so off the gas
and just pop down under the bridge you can see that cluster of boats there eye on the minimap
there we go might have dropped that a bit early but squeaked it in so that’s okay all right gain
a bit of altitude to try and get above the eddies and then head back to the airfield now because we
are on this side of the airfield and this side of the lmo c we don’t need to bank too hard we
can approach it from more or less straight on this time instead of having to account for big turns or
coming off on a right angle all right there’s air filled in the distance we’ll just bank around line
ourselves up and gear down so g on your keyboard or your left thumb stick on the playstation xbox
and i’m probably um coming in a bit hot but that’s okay we’ll just steer in drop it down i don’t want
to get caught up in the mud because we do have a little bit of weather here and then steer in
as soon as you can doesn’t matter what speed you hit the hanger at it will slow you down straight
away we’ll skid to a stop and that is passed so very happy with that one got our full bonus
squared it away in under four minutes yeah can’t complain there very happy and thanks for watching
