How to unlock the Thanks For Flying GasBag Airways achievement in Gears of War 3 - Definitive Guide
As the description says you have to complete Act 2 Chapter 7 (Standard or Arcade) on any difficulty, I got mine on Normal.
TOUCHDOWN
You will start this chapter on board of a Gas Barge right after you pick up Dizzy Wallin. The mission is to eliminate any incoming enemy Gas Barges. You’ll do so by grabbing one of the Turrets, (some kind of Boomshot Cannons), just get close to it and by pressing X, you will be able to operate it. Try to aim a little bit higher than you normally do to hit your target. Since the enemies will pop from different angles, try to switch between Turrets to have a better clean shot. After you kill them you’ll have a cut scene and the next objective will be to survive the Tempest attack, which consists of killing a gigantic Insect. You can easily kill it with your Lancer or Hammerburst assault rifle. Point it to his head to get a better result. As soon as you kill it your achievement will be unlocked.
I think this chapter was fun and fair, I’m sure you will not have trouble getting the achievement.
Best of luck.

Is this missable? I somehow managed to not snag it during my playthrough.

Play the campaign on any difficulty, Act 2 Chapter 7. Playing with a buddy helps with the co-op achievement. I believe you get this after you finish flying on a gas barge while on your way to Anvil Gate
