Any word if the aircraft was seized as well?

If I were in that situation I’d be looking pretty hard at how to get the hell out of the country. I wonder how much of a struggle it would be to walk across the border into Haiti or cash charter a boat to the British Virgin Islands.

I’ve noticed Canadians don’t often get this “bribe” thing.

A few bucks would probably get them on their way.

Think of it as a tax, which come in many forms and are levied by many people. Canadians love paying tax. I have friends in Ottawa, they're paying 60% marginal tax, and in return, they get really shitty health care.

It’s funny, but not funny…

This has happened a few times in the last decade. I think the last notable time was a cargo crew flying the Irish concord… the Shorts 360.

Doesn’t seem to happen to the big(ger) boys.

It’s kind of like a street hustler marking a mark…
