The translation doesn't make sense and implies this was stolen plane - "taken without permission"

Yes, it is reported as likely stolen. You can do your own translation. Here's more:

http://colectivopericu.wordpress.com/2011/07/28/dos-cuerpos-...

La Paz, BCS, we have been receiving reports on our writing and indicate that two bodies were recovered at the site of plane crash occurred this morning, where staff of the Mexican Army and the Navy Department in charge of the situation.

A few moments ago the director of Civil Protection of the state government, Carlos Enriquez Rincon phone informed us that two bodies were located in the tourist boat Abilene No. 1 and were identified as Jose Rosario Avila Carrillo 54-year-old and his son Cyril Avila Holguin.

The NZ10 registration Cessna, was apparently stolen from the runway Hotel Palmas de Cortez, says the Director of Civil Protection. He fell into a place known as the line between the barrel and Cardonal.

It seems they were the only crew of the aircraft.

I think that's my favorite part of the translation. I can see it now: "Hey you, dead guy! What's your name?"

Wow!...somebody stole a big Cessna to haul pot and then found out that a C210 ain't easy to fly like a C206 or 182 which are the normal drug haulers.

Too bad the Mexican "authorities" don't know that Bobby VanWormer closed the Palmas de Cortez strip and turned it into a golf course about ten years ago...sometime there are cows out there too.

Us Bonanza drivers normally feel comforted that the druggies know better than to try flying one of our complex and fast birds that don't haul as much pot as a Cessna....but it's troubling to hear that the druggies apparently forgot that wheels coming up, lotsa horsepower and the need for a pro in the left seat is required to insure the trip doesn't end in the drink.

seems to me like the only loser in this deal is the plane owner,
the pilots got what they wanted,
a free ride
and justice
I once owned a 210- took it to Muleje, just once,
decided I did not want to donate it to the Cartel....
so I sold it and just relied on my Cutlass for Baja flights.

The FAA registration has this aircraft being exported to Mexico from California in 2005, so it is not one of the many 210's that have been stolen over the years.
Also, the Cessna 210 is not a particularly more complex aircraft to fly than a 182, 206 or a Bonanza as demonstrated by the large number of them that have been successfully stolen in Mexico over the years. There are many Mexican pilots more skilled in flying into unimproved airstrips and under difficult conditions than the average US pilot. This one may have been rigged to fail by the owner given the high probability of theft in Mexico. Many US pilots have their own methods, including fuel starvation to prevent theft of their aircraft. In this case maybe the fuel lasted a little longer than expected. Just guessing as the true cause will probably never be known.

plane was probably stolen by narcos from another narco (explaining why plane was taken from a closed strip).

another explanation for plane taking off from illegal strip is that the owner "authorized" pilot to fly plane, and now that it crashed with a questionable load the owner is claiming it was stolen

Time to start asking alot of questions. How did two men from Sinaloa come about a nice plane sitting on an airstrip? Did they just happen to be walking along the coast and decide it was a nice time to steal it? Where did they stay? Where is their car? Did anyone see these people before or days prior, I would be seriously talking to that pilot over at the Palmas.

The end maybe?


That is the 3rd stolen 210 from Punta Pescadero in 3-4 years.
A couple of years ago, I did an annual (not valid) on a friends 210 out there. But he felt good about it. flew it back to the US.

Closed had nada to do with it, as us long time baja pilots know - Palmas De Cortez pista is NOT even there anymore! When it was, it was the fricking road right in front of the hotel which was shared by ground vehicles and pedestrians. After many an accident involving moving aircraft and vehicles Van Wormer made the biz decision to close it since he had the PCL [punta Colorada] strip avail and more importantly most of his resort clientel were coming in via San Jose on jets to fish with his operations.

In regard to where the plane was stolen from, as all locals know the airstrip at Palmas is now none existent, the road where is once was has been greatly narrowed by since built structures and the golf course, there is no way a plane could now land there without taking off it's wings; I think this is a perfect example of how far from reality the news media can be. We assume because it is reported in a news paper, it must be fact, when in fact who knows how much is conjecture on the part of the writer.

I sure thought it was. I think the huge pitch changes you experience when flaps are added or retracted, and the fact that the high wing was much farther from ground effect on landing, made the 210 much more difficult to fly than, particularly, a Bonanza. I thought you had to constantly pay attention to flying a 210, but you just pointed the Bonanza (straight tail) in the right direction and everything worked out :). I thought 210s were much more difficult to land than either a Bonanza or a Baron. I never flew a 206 but I have about 500 hours each in both Bonanzas and 210s. I also thought the 210 was substantially more difficult to fly than a 182, but just because it was so much heavier and faster - and then there's the gear....
