Stranger Things Mission Two

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue: When flying the Stranger Things Mission 2 94.5, after the warehouse pickup, the radio station is listed as the next objective. After passing into the quarantine, the radio station drops from the objective list, and a red helicopter icon appears with a distance of approximately ~3500nm away. No new instructions are given. When landing, “gramps” announces that we’ve landed but nothing else occurs.

Please add a screenshot or video of the issue occurring.

Have the exact same problem. No way to go past. Tried downloading/reactivating via marketplace. Still the same.

I’m afraid this is a pretty ancient bug since I’ve seen this bug on FSX.

I also see the same issue on my laptop. I wonder if there are settings that cause this. I’m running with no helicopter assistance, FWIW.

I tried this Mission many times before I finally figured it out. It says to land immediately when the enemy helicopters are coming. I tried landing among the trees quite a few times but I was always spotted. Then I tried landing where there were some buildings and apparently the enemy doesn’t realize you don’t belong there and moves on.
