Fallout New Vegas: Volare!

Volare!

Given by: Pearl [Nellis AFB] (M11:1)

The toughest part of this task is to get inside the base and more precisely, close to its entrance while when you get close enough, the artillery starts shooting at you. Near the [Field's Shack] (MsB:16) you'll find George #1 standing on the road. He can make a deal with you for 300 caps. If you can go inside the Boomers base and return, he'll give you 600 caps. You can try to lower the price to 200 caps [Barter 40]. He'll give you a tip how to make it into the base. If you do not want to spend your money, read the note below:

"The key to avoiding the artillery is to move from building-to-building up the northwest side of town toward the front gate. Stick to the high cover in the northeast corner of the two buildings, then make a bee line for the gate. The Boomers won't shoot at their own people, so stick to the fence until you make it to the gate. Also, I know there is an old train tunnel that enters the area from the south, but no one has ever come back out of there to say it is safe."

Use these suggestions until you reach the gate #2. The Boomer Guard will come after a while and will call Raquel. She'll take you to Pearl (M11:1). To gain Boomer's favor you have to get highest possible reputation with them [Idolized]. You can gain it by helping Boomers in Nellis and completing missions for them.

Argyll (M11:4) takes care of patients and will ask you for help. You can help him though only if your skills are high enough.

• [Medicine 40] tell him about your medicine knowledge
• [Speech 35] lie about your medicine skills

You need to heal three patients. You can heal each of them: [Medicine 40], [Medicine 50], [Medicine 60] or just leave them. You'll get positive reputation for healing them.

Pete (M11:3) can be found in the museum. Go to him and listen to the Boomers' history lesson. Don't disturb him, otherwise you'll have to listen to this again. If your skills are high enough you get some more information out of him gaining positive reputation each time: [Explosives 40], [Science 35], [Survival 40], [Speech 40], [Speech 55], [Repair 40].

	Character: Raquel Location: [Nellis AFB] (M11:5) Quest: [Ant Misbehavin']
	Character: Loyal Location: [Nellis AFB] (M11:2) Quest: [Sunshine Boogie]

You can also complete the optional [Young Hearts] quest for Jack (M11:2). It requires some particular skills to be finished and it is not marked on the map while doing the [Volare!] quest. It helps you raising your reputation with Boomers.

You do not have to complete all these quests to gain high reputation the Boomers. Once you're idolized by them, go to see Pearl (M11:1). Before you can get support from the Boomers you have to complete one more task. Go to Loyal (M11:2) and ask him about Lady in the water. He'll ask you to get the airplane from the bottom of the lake. You'll receive two flotation devices and Loyal's detonator. Optionally you can to Jack, who was working long ago on Rebreather. It will allow you breathe underwater. Unfortunately there is one part missing.

• you can search for a Pressure Cooker (one can be found in [Field's Shack] (MsB:16))
• [Science 45] tell him what to use instead the cooker

Once you've succeeded, you'll get the Rebreather. Head to the lake, jump into the water and dive under the plane (if you have the Rebreather - use it now). Attach both ballasts under the plane's wings #1 and resurface. Now it is time for a detonator. Head towards harpoon gun #2 - the detonator will start to beep. Equip it as a weapon and fire it to raise the plane.

Return to Loyal (M11:2) and tell him about your success. You can ask him [Intelligence 7] how to get the plane without attracting anyone's attention. Return to Pearl (M11:1) and ask her if she agrees to support you during the final fight at Hoover Dam. She'll agree.
