An airliner stuffed with dozens of sacks of Colombian cocaine has crashed in the jungle of southern Mexico.
Local police officer Eustaquio Arredondo told reporters no casualties had been found but one person who was apparently on board the aircraft had been arrested.
TV images showed 132 military-style black bags containing around 3.3 metric tons of cocaine lined up in rows next to chunks of the wrecked plane, which came down near the municipality of Tixkokob, a three-hour drive west of the Cancun beach resort.
Of course, when the plane left Columbia, it probably was carrying 250 military-style black bags of cocaine. Or more.
At least the officer in charge was smart enough not to steal it all. That would have been too obvious. Share the wealth.
The plane registration was N987SA (registered in the USA), so maybe it is part of a Pentagon plan for getting funds now that “America Crumbles As Funds Are Diverted To War”.
The plane was registered in the USA and the pilots were Americans, according to our news, so who on the U.S. will be receiving this shipment, I believe that is the real question here!, not the fact that Mexican authorities made the arrest.
Its ColOmbia, not ColUmbia, hell it’s even spelled correctly in the article you are reporting on. Take some geography lessons or at least read the article you are reporting on.
Cocaine-laden… any relation to Bin-laden?
The Bush Regime constantly blames Venezuela for trafficking cocaine, but we all know that the cocaine right under his nose (so to speak) in our “ally” Colombia.
Anyway I say….America needs its drugs! There wouldn’t be a supply if it wasn’t for the demand.
I’m curious as to “why” the plane crashed? Small biz jets aren’t supposed to do that. Makes me wonder if the drug dealers test their pilots for any drug abuse before flights?
Business is business afterall.

Maybe their mechanics got into the nose candy.

Not sure why this is news. I don’t think this is all that uncommon.
9–Excellent guess. I googled that size Lear Jet==7000 lbs carry weight. So, yea==it was heavy. Still——–
Damn. Now I know why its been hard to find decent blow recently. someone got greedy
I don’t get it. With that much coke, shouldn’t the plane just have kept going higher and higher?
