And among flights with less than 100 sorties, passenger planes accounted for 80%, and cargo planes accounted for 20%.
However, since the locations of the circles drawn by Duncan Li are likely in South Asia and Southeast Asia, there are no direct passenger planes between these places and Mexico.
During those five days, only one cargo plane took off from Colombo, the capital of Sri Lanka.
This cargo plane model is exactly the Boeing 777 long-haul passenger plane that Joseph mentioned earlier.
This can be seen from immigration information that the plane took off from Colombo on the fourth night before the incident in New York. After a 20-hour flight, arrived in the Mexican border city of Monterrey in the morning two days earlier. incident. , landing at Monterey International Airport.
The entry information also indicates that in the entry application for this aircraft, the items filled in are tea and coffee beans which are Sri Lankan specialties.
After seeing this information, Duncan Li said excitedly, “There is a high probability that this is the plane!”
Joseph also agreed: “This plane is a Boeing 777-200LR, which is a Boeing long-range aircraft. It is not impossible to fly 20,000 kilometers with moderate modifications, and cargo planes converted from passenger planes are very common, but stand grounded. , Must not be modified by long-haul passenger aircraft.”
“Because long-haul passenger aircraft have added more fuel reserve space, the commercial load available is not large. Using this type of aircraft to convert to Freighter is not concerned with the load, but only about efficiency. This type of aircraft can basically fly directly from any two airports on Earth.”
