On 17th November 2024, Reptar shared a video of Rust gameplay on reddit, which was titled Roleplayers life on official server. The video showed his group flying a hot air balloon when a minicopter passes them. They shoot an arrow at the minicopter, before the balloon appears to be struck by bullets. One player in the balloon is playing the theme from the Pirates of the Caribbean soundtrack on guitar during the battle, and one of them shouts at a nearby player-piloted attack helicopter to help them fight against the minicopter. The balloon then appears to run out of fuel, and lands in a snow biome before the crew dismount. That month, Reptar was playing on the Rustopia US Large server, where he built a Sky Club.

On 20th November, Hudson633 made a digital painting that depicted the battle between the balloon and the minicopter, titling it Aerial Combat:
