AntMag.NET

Alright, let's get this mission, Caida Libre, done in Grand Theft Auto V. You'll need to retrieve some important files from a plane. Make sure you've finished the 'Eye in The Sky' mission first, then head over to the 'M' marker on your map as Michael to kick things off.

Walkthrough

1
Once the intro scene wraps up, make your way to the observatory. Inside, you'll find a van. Park yourself in there and wait for the target plane to show up.
2
When the plane is in sight, you'll need to get your crosshairs on those red squares that appear. Aim carefully and shoot the plane three times to disable its engines.
3
After you've shot down the engines, quickly switch over to Trevor. Your job now is to follow the plane as it makes its descent until it crashes.
4
Once the plane has crashed, get out and grab the files from the wreckage. After securing the files, hop back into the van, drive it away from the crash site, and then destroy the van.
5
Finally, to wrap up the mission, drive over to the cement works to meet up with Trevor.

🏆 Gold Medal Requirements

✓Floor It: Keep the Sanchez dirt bike at top speed for the entire chase.

✓Glued To The Seat: Don't fall off the Sanchez at any point during the chase sequence.

✓One Two Three: Take down the plane using only three shots.

✓Mission Time: Complete the entire mission within 09:45.

Tips

Floor It: For this, just keep the accelerator mashed down on your Sanchez. The chase has plenty of straight sections, so hitting top speed shouldn't be too difficult.
Glued To The Seat: The Sanchez handles really well, especially off-road. Use its agility to weave through obstacles and take wide corners. Keep your eyes up the road to spot hazards and plan your jumps. Don't panic if you have to pull off some crazy jumps; just keep pushing forward.
One Two Three: When it's time to shoot the plane, zoom in with your rifle. You'll see a large red square. The game accounts for wind and plane speed, so just line up your crosshairs perfectly in the center of that square. You absolutely must hit it three times and can't miss any shots.
Mission Time: If you manage to take out the plane with just three shots and avoid any crashes on the Sanchez (which you should be aiming for anyway), completing the mission within the 9 minute and 45-second time limit should be straightforward.
