Pretty good strategy Hikaru. But I have a few changes that you might want to make to the sniping practice part. First, you should get a sniper rifle when you are in the valley with the marines. Then, when you get to the land bridge, only kill the first elite, the second elite before it jumps into the banshee, and any jackals that are around the entrance. Then you can jump in the banshee and destroy, or, if you can, flip it over with a blast from the fuel rod cannon before the elite can jump into it, and fly up to the small walkway above the pyramid, instead of the platform, because it is higher up.
There are three walkways that you can fly onto, but if you go onto the top one, it will look hazy and it will be hard to see, so I would prefer the middle one. Then, if you need it, you can fly down into the pit at the bottom of the valley for some sniper ammo. Also, when you fly up to the walkway, make sure that the banshee doesn't fall off, or you will be screwed. If it does, press the X button quickly to get into it before it falls off.
Then, if you just want to finish the level, you can fly down to the gate and kill all the Covenant down there on the other side of the gate (you could also fly down and get the rocket launcher to make it even easier). However, if you don't want to cheat to beat AotCR on legendary, you could always fly back down to the bridge and finish the level like a true Halo expert (make sure that you fly the banshee in front of the door on the opposite side of the bridge that you came from to get the two hunters and the several grunts that come out of it, so that you can kill them, too. Also, to kill the hunters easier and to save ammo, shoot them in the orange spot on their back for a one-shot kill).
