Arms Trafficking Air #3

Overview
After completing the mission Nervous Ron, The McKenzie Field Hangar becomes available for purchase for a price of $150,000, only while playing as Trevor. Upon purchase, Trevor gains access to the fields hangar, and the Cuban 800 airplane that is inside. When Trevor enters the airplane, he will immediaty receive instructions over radio from Oscar Guzman on what needs to be done.
Arms Trafficking Air missions involve Trevor dropping weapons packages into designated drop zones, and bombing competing arms runners. There are a total of five air trafficking missions to undertake. In order to unlock the next one, you must first unlock the one before it. Each air trafficking mission earns Trevor $7,000 before any bonus money is added on.
Each of the five missions count towards one out of fifty-nine Hobbies and Pastimes missions, but they do not count towards the 100% game completion checklist.

Once again, take the plane to McKenzie Field Hangar and land on the hangar once all the groups are destroyed.

There will be two sets of planes and one of trucks, this time when Trevor drops a bomb, instead of a single bomb he will drop a chain, so it's important that the plane be aligned with the sets of vehicles so he does not waste any bomb. Once all three sets are destroyed, take the plane back to McKenzie Field Hangar and land on the hangar. The sets can be destroyed in any order and Trevor will have four chains of bombs to destroy all the sets, meaning that he can only miss once.
Trivia
- The drop zones and the groups of enemies are all marked with smoke flags, use this to locate the area to drop the packages or bombs more easily.
- Once Trevor drops a bomb, the player will be able to control the fall of the bomb before it hits the ground, use this to aim with more precision in the middle of the target.
- After completing the five missions, Trevor can continue doing random air missions from the airstrip.
- During the first mission, Trevor and Oscar conversate about Trevor knowing some Spanish. Trevor says at one point; "Dame una manada. Curame mamacita." to which Oscar laughs and asks Trevor if he even knows what he is even saying. The statement loosely translates to "Give me a blowjob (or head), baby!". Considering Trevor said any Spanish he knows he learned "...from some lovely ladies south of the border" it is highly possible it had sexual connotations.
- The sidemissions share their soundtrack with Minor Turbulence.
