You are sent to the airport, where you need to steal a Dodo and intercept the incoming jet. Once in the plane, use left and right for cover as you kill the four hitmen, and then the pilot. Then, fly back to the Las Venturas airport and land. | ||
After landing, you'll get a call from Tenpenny that opens up a new mission in the desert. | After landing, you'll get a call from Tenpenny that opens up a new mission in the desert. | ||

The jet flies at about the top level of the first altitude indicator. You need to reach and maintain an altitude about one third of the way above the first altitude indicator. This will give you enough altitude to bleed off during your turn. | ||
The jet is activated by proximity, not by crossing a line north of the city. If you fly on the heading a bit to the east (right) of due north, the jet will not be activated until it is at a 45° angle to the west (left) of your position. | The jet is activated by proximity, not by crossing a line north of the city.

After you take over the jet (which is simply a two stage whack-a-mole exercise) you need to land it at the Las Venturas airport successfuly to conclude the mission. DO NOT FORGET TO PUT YOUR LANDING GEAR DOWN (press {{kbd|2}} on the PC). You can land anywhere on the runway. If you haven't piloted or landed a jet in GTA:SA before, you should steal a Shamal from the Las Venturas airport and exercise it, including landing, prior to attempting the Freefall mission. You can also exercise with the Dodo as there are always a couple parked at the LV airport. The gate to the LV airport will open automatically if you have passed flight school. | After you take over the jet (which is simply a two stage whack-a-mole exercise) you need to land it at the Las Venturas airport successfuly to conclude the mission.

If you are playing the PC version of the game you can use the [http://www.thegtaplace.com/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=522 SA Config Editor] to edit the config of the your plane, the DODO, to make it faster and the speed of the SHAMAL (target plane) to make it slower. The file you need to edit is the "handling.cfg" file. This can also be edited using a text editor (save a copy of the file before you do so). Changing the drag factor of the DODO from 12.0 to 8.0 will make the chase easier. However this also makes the DODO a bit more difficult to control. | If you are playing the PC version of the game you can use the [http://www.thegtaplace.com/pafiledb.php?action=file&id=522 SA Config Editor] to edit the config of the your plane, the DODO, to make it faster and the speed of the SHAMAL (target plane) to make it slower.
