I’m Free - Free Falling

The opening airplane escape is the mission I’m Free - Free Falling, second in the list. You bail out over Steelport with sixteen pursuers. The reward is 500 Respect, Shaundi as a homie, and the Welcome Wagon achievement, 15 gamerscore, bronze. You cannot quit out and resume. You restart.

What the chase is

The wiki does not give a frame-perfect parachute timing, so I will not invent one. Follow the objective marker. Shaundi cannot die in this mission, which is why the fail state is not “protect Shaundi” in the usual escort sense. The set piece is the jump and the sixteen enemies on the way down.

Welcome Wagon is an offline achievement. It is unrelated to Jumped In, the upload trophy that died with My Steelport. If the jump kills you, the restart rule is the whole recovery plan. There is no checkpoint paragraph I can cite beyond “restart the mission.”

Why the slug looks odd

The title uses a hyphen and a doubled free: I’m Free - Free Falling. I kept that spelling so the page matches the mission list instead of a shortened “plane mission” nickname.
