I can get the banshee in the control room, just cant get it before that big underground cavern. I know you can do it, since it has the demo person flying one around by the first marines you find, but i dont know how to get it, and cant find it!

"heh"

There is a banshee on the bridge where you first see the pyramid structure of the control room. 2, actually. And that's the only place you can get them.

Its hard! I have done it, but it's very hard. You have to run fast and stall the red elite before he gets in. Like shoot at him and throw a grenade. Then you try to get in before he recovers. Even then, you could get shot out of the sky if you don't fly away from the bridge fast. I have only done this on easy and normal difficulty, but I cannot begin to imagine how hard it would be on heroic or legendary to get the shee.

I've done it on legendary two times. It isn't that hard after halo 2 legendary.

Nope you have it all wrong, that is one place you get the banshee, the other is where you first get the scorpion. Get in the scorpian and look up and to the left. There is a ledge there, (the place where you have to go at the end of two betrayals) there is a parked banshee there. You can shoot it off with the scorpion.

And dude I really don't see how you think jacking the banshee on the bridge is hard. Try KILLING the elite instead of wounding him. With sniper or grenade. I had to do it on legendary...wasn't to hard. Took me about 5 tries...

I just bring the sniper from earlier in the level.

I found it easier to take a rocket and shoot at where the banshee spawns. It's on the ledge where you end the level Two Betrayals.

Save the Active Camo you get in the corridor where the invisible Elites are. Then, when you've cleared the room with the Hunters and the grunts and jackals that come through the door, use the Active Camo and run as fast as possible out onto the Bridge. You can do what you like then, grab the banshee, kill the elite, whatever. You will have a few seconds of invisibility, maybe about 10, out on the bridge if you are quick.

I think Spartan Clone 11 is talking about how in the "official" (meaning it is often mistaken) strategy guide from Prima for Halo: CE states that at the very beginning of Assault on the Control Room, on the very ledge the Pelican drops you on, there is a Banshee. This is wrong. There is no Banshee here, Spartan Clone. The Prima strategy guides are usually inaccurate, do not worry, if that is where you got the information. Online strategy guides are of much higher quality, so if you actually need one you can look there, they are usually accurate for any game.
