Description

An elite aerial unit wouldn't be complete without the newest innovations in flying machine technology.

There's just one small problem.

The innovative new engine we built was left behind when we evacuated Gnomeregan. We need that prototype if we want these bombers to safely get off the ground!

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Gnomeregan's FinestLevel 50-90

    The leaders of the Alliance have agreed to fund an elite gnomish aerial task force. And you have been chosen to lead the test team for the Gnomish Elite Aerial Rangers. I have assembled some of the finest tinkers and soldiers from Gnomeregan, who are now under your command.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Tundra ConundrumLevel 50-90

    While you were in Gnomeregan, we received a distress signal from Fizzcrank Airstrip in Borean Tundra. This seems like the perfect opportunity to show off what G.E.A.R. can do! I've sent the rest of your squad ahead. Meet them out there.
