But Friday's plane was not carrying weight - it was a single engine plane, and it only had two Mexican's on board, one of them carrying less than a gram of cocaine.
As we told you on Friday, the Cessna 210 had a controlled crash landing in Blue Creek village, and police responded in minutes. The head off National Crimes Investigation told us more:
ACP Joseph Myvette, Head, NCIB
"On Friday sometime around 3:30pm police were called to an airstrip in the Blue Creek area of Orange Walk where upon arrival they observed a single engine red and white plane which had apparently crash landed on the air strip. At that point of the police's arrival, two persons were found there namely Ramon Lopez Perez, a fifty-year-old Mexican national and Humberto Miranda Gonzalez, thirty-nine-year-old Mexican national were found in the vicinity of the aircraft. They reported that
they were experiencing some kind of engine problems and as a result were forced to land in the area. An investigation was carried out after they were taken into custody and police have since arrested and charged Ramon Perez for landing an aircraft without the permission of the Minister of Civil Aviation, whilst Humberto Gonzalez was charged with conspiracy to landing an aircraft without the permission of the Minister responsible for the Civil Aviation. A number of fuel containers I believe were found not too far away from the aircraft where just a little bit of fuel was found in those containers. Nothing illegal other than the fact that the pilot was found with a very small amount of cocaine on his person 0.7 grams and he has also been arrested and charge for that."
The two Mexicans charged are Ramon Lopez and Humberto Gonzalez.
