How to unlock Choplifting missions

When you and your team need to start earning money early on in Saints Row, the choplifting tasks become available. The initial location for these missions is in Old Town East, east of the church. More will become available during the remainder of the game if you interact with the NPC there.

How to complete Choplifting missions

The mission will begin with you riding in a helicopter. Your objective is to reach the waypoint where a certain load, like an armored automobile, should be waiting for you. You must bring the magnet from the helicopter with you by lowering it before you arrive and setting it up on top of the car. You won't be able to defend this cargo from the several armed guards that will be protecting it. Your main concern is using your magnet to seize the cargo and take off with it.

Your map will show you another waypoint where you must proceed in order to take the armed vehicle. As you pilot your helicopter, you'll realize that the cargo has significantly weighed it down. To avoid colliding with too many objects, such as neighboring automobiles, buildings, or trees, you might need more time to manage your flying machine. The armed guards will be following you in vehicles at the same time and will make attempts to damage your helicopter during this mission.

The job will be finished after you arrive at the destination and drop the package on top of the waiting truck. There will also be extra tasks for you to accomplish that will give you extra experience at the end of the assignment.
