Mission walkthrough

Buy Gold Coast on LCN before taking the call at the La Mesa payphone. Bring a rifle with plenty of ammo and an RPG if you have one. Bonelli knows you’re coming and has guards all over the site in Pillbox Hill.

Fight up through the lower floors and take the construction elevator to the roof. Bonelli runs for a helicopter. Shoot it down with the RPG, or shoot the pilot. Take the parachute or the elevator down and leave. Sell Gold Coast after about a day, at around 45%.
