Friendly Skies

Adelaide asks you to help her retrieve her helicopter from the cult. She provides three locations to investigate, which can be tackled in any order, though it's recommended to leave the lookout for last.

Head to the fire tower east of your current location, at Taft Lookout Tower. Obtain a helicopter from the shop at the Marina and fly to the tower. You will identify the pilot as female. Fly to the tower and eliminate all enemies, including the pilot. Be aware that snipers are present at this tower, so you may need to strafe.

Next, go to the hunting shack west of your location at the McCoy Cabin. Take a helicopter (either the one from the previous location or a new one from the shop) and fly there. You will identify another female pilot. Remain airborne and clear the area of enemies. There is a hostage inside the house to liberate.

Fly to the Lookout, the final location. Disembark from your helicopter and use your binoculars. You should be able to spot the helicopter. Observe it, and you will see it alternates between a location to the east in a Bliss field and McCallough’s Garage to the south.

Wait for the pilot to land the helicopter at the garage and exit it. Use the nearby zipline to reach an overlook.

Equip a sniper rifle or call Grace Armstrong. Aim and kill the pilot. After the pilot is dead, clear the area of all cultists.

Take control of Tulip, the helicopter, and begin the journey back to the Marina.

As you approach the Marina, you will encounter cultists attempting to retake it. Stay airborne and keep moving while attacking the cultists and their pickup trucks.

Once all cultists are eliminated, land the helicopter and speak with Adelaide to complete the mission and recruit her.
