I finally passed the mission called Icebox! *Happy Dance*
Thanks to the tips I got from this forum I was able to pass this very hard mission. Keep up the good work! I am hoping that Novalogic will come out with the next version Comanche.
Here is what I did to get through this very tough mission. At the start of the mission I reloaded with two helfires and the rest stingers. I then told my wingman to stay here since he gets shot down or starts the rescue chopper moving. I zoomed my map all the way out, took the first person view and cycle waypoints to waypoint 2. (WP2) As I got near, I went into a very low altitude and found a nice place to take out a few major Geckos and the odd skidoo that came by. After taking out as many as I could, I flew back to WP1 and then called my Wingman in to follow and engage. I took out the 3 or 4 targets at WP1 then continued taking out all the targets I could. I took out the base with two stingers and then the Rescue chopper was going to land. I found a Farp to reload while my Wingman took out a few choppers that came into the area. After reloading, I took out a few choppers and quickly cycled waypoints to WP5. I found the Rescue chopper and followed it with stingers ready. A swarm of choppers came to attack and I let them have it with the stingers. I believe I had about 22 stingers on board. My Wingman helped as well. The game calls in backup and by then the mission is complete. I tried this mission at least 20 plus times to get through it.
