*The [[Portable jump-jet|Jetpack]] is very useful for completing this achievement. Banshees can also be stunned for a short time with an overcharged [[Type-25 Directed Energy Pistol|Plasma Pistol]] shot and a [[Grenade launcher|Grenade Launcher]] shot.
*The [[Series 8 jetpack|Jetpack]] is very useful for completing this achievement. Banshees can also be stunned for a short time with an overcharged [[Type-25 Directed Energy Pistol|Plasma Pistol]] shot and a [[Grenade launcher|Grenade Launcher]] shot.
*Not all areas have Banshees that can be hijacked (such as the ones in [[Winter Contingency (level)|Winter Contingency]], where the Banshees don't have pilots). Good areas to achieve this are past the EMP barrier and before the spire in [[Tip of the Spear]] and within the caverns in [[The Package (level)|The Package]].

*This achievement is glitched, in that one can get it by boarding a Falcon. First, betray ones allies such that they become hostile. Then go to an ally on a Falcon and board enemy Falcon. Boarding it will award the player the achievement. A good spot to perform this action is during [[Exodus]], in the beginning of the final chapter, ''I Should Have Become A Watchmaker''.
