‘Flight Recon’ Mission Summary

The final Mission of White Lotus Tier 1 List is to take a Light Helo and safely land at Hafid Port Helipad, download and extract the flight path data from the Helo upon landing. Sounds simple enough for a Tier 1 Mission however, due to the limited spawns of Light Helo across Al Mazrah, this Mission could indeed take longer to complete. Its difficulty stems from the fact that you may not find Light Helo within the first few searches as you enter the Mission. In this case, you should search these 4 areas of Al Mazrah:

  • Al Mazrah Airport
  • Sawah Village
  • El Samman Cemetery
  • Ahkdar Village

The Helo can spawn on top of rooftops in Al Mazrah City however we recommend the names locations listed above. What you can do also is check the entire Map for the Helo icon (without travelling anywhere). Simply open the Map and zoom into the 4 locations named above. This will tell you if a Light Helo spawn is present.

How to Complete ‘Flight Recon’

Remember to check the Al Mazrah Villages, the City, Cemetery and Airport for possible Light Helo spawns. The best place to check first is Al Mazrah Airport. As a Light Helo is almost always likely to spawn in at the runway. Your best option is to take a speedboat from Al Bagra Fortress to the location of Al Mazrah Airport. Located on the south-east side of Al Mazrah. Keep in mind that the Airport is always heavily guarded. Therefore, when attempting to get onto the runway (if a Helo has spawned in), it may be easily to use a boat to get in.

Next you need to fly the Light Helo all the way to the west side of Al Mazrah. To the specific spot of Hafid Port. The specific spot which you need to land on is the helipad located on the north side of the Port. Refer to the screenshot below of the exact location in which you need to successfully land. We recommend keeping along the western edge of Al Mazrah. Instead of heading in a straight line from the Airport or whichever location you found the Helo at. This will keep your Helo from being shot at.

Once you arrive at the Helipad, exit the Helo and a pop up will appear immediately to download the flight data. The download will happen and finish instantaneously. Get back into the Light Helo and check the Map for the flight path data highlighted with the blue man icon. This tells you where you need to go next to exfil the Mission. Doing this will finish and complete ‘Flight Recon’.
