A bit more than a car’s headlights unless it was a moonlit night. And it’s not that easy, both the pilot and ground crew would have had to practice and also done a thorough recce of the planned tech stop.
Fingers crossed the AFP weren’t sold a pup and the majority of the payload wasn’t dropped off at the tech stop.
Pity about their Cecile B. De Mille cinematographic extravaganza of the bust.. somewhat cheapens otherwise good police work.
