What self respecting drug dealer would get himself caught in a shagged out old Cessna, Pablo Escobar must be spinning in his grave.

Yeah, upon his release he definatley needs to have a stern word with his "orginizations" Chief Financial Officer about the budget for future plant and equipment expenditures. The current CapEx is just not cutting the mustard.

Christ that's the ugliest paint job I've ever seen. Worth a prison sentance just for flying it.

Perhaps it's the clown tactic - make it so outlandish, that the authorities let is pass, 'cause they're laughing so hard!

I have worked with an authority who operates a C 206 which is super reengined, all matt black, and is used to catch these offenders.

A stealth C206 - that's a first! ;)

I quite like it. Makes a change from all those boring white ones...

A King Air is certainly a better way to travel, but a battered old Cessna is far more "disposable", and (I would have thought?) better suited to a 670 metre grass strip.

I had to larf at the local paper describing East Winch as "remote" - it's half a mile from the A47 trunk road, and just inside the Marham MATZ!

Anyone who has been posted to Marham will empathise with the adjective 'remote'.
