That year, the Pelican was used during the [[Battle for Earth]]. There, Echo 051 and another unknown Pelican were sent to retrieve [[John-117]] and [[Thel 'Vadam]], as well as [[Sergeant Major]] [[Avery Junior Johnson|Avery Johnson]] and several [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marines]].

Unfortunately, the two [[D77-TC Pelican|Pelicans]] were ambushed by [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshees]] and [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Phantoms]] piloted by the [[Jiralhanae|Brutes]]. Echo 051 was able to maneuver away from the enemy fire, even though it took a direct hit on its front starboard engine as it was loading soldiers, spinning out of control and crashing upside down near a cliff where its survivors, including [[Sergeant]] [[Avery Junior Johnson|Johnson]], were captured by the Brutes. Its unknown wing man spun in the same direction but crashed in the river, sinking to the bottom.
