There are a lot of people that say this company is a front for the CIA. Except this is a really sloppy job if this is a front. So I don't buy that whole "CIA front" business.
My question is; who owns this plane? The owners of DBA can't be found. The office of DBA is empty. There is a jet that until it went down was a regular flier all over the US. No answers bothers me. However, I am far from going conspiracy theory and claiming the CIA/DEA had anything to do with this. If they want heroin they don't have to go to Mexico to get it. They can have all they want in Afghanistan.

That's pretty much what the article I posted said. That's what brings it all into question in regards to the CIA involvement. This plane has been identified in the lawsuit against the US govt in regards to whats going on at GitMo in Cuba. The plane has been used in the past by the CIA to ferry detainees to Cuba.
Now if the Chatter service is a front for the CIA who knows, but I believe one or both of the owners did have links to the US govt. Then you have the shady sale and no records until after the crash. So there are a lot of things that don't add up here.
The CIA has a history of this kinda stuff and has a well known history of being involved in drug smuggling in the past. So with the fact that they "have" done it before and have been caught, well it's not that big of a stretch to link them into this.
Now on the other hand, maybe they aren't involved and had only chartered the jet at one point to carry some prisoners.
One thing is for certian we do have stuff going on under the radar in south America. Back before 9/11 I had a pretty good connection through a job I used to have and a family friend. If I would have been able to get into pilot training via the US army reserves, I was going to end up working as a pilot for a private company. This company did work for the US govt in south America. Some of their work was on the up and up and some of it was on the down low.
I do know for a fact that we have stuff going on in South America and I wouldn't put it past the CIA to run drugs to fund some of these black programs. After all they have done it in the past.
