An air freight company in Greensboro, North Carolina has grounded flights to Venezuela amid suspicions its plane was being used to send arms to rebels in that country. The same 21 Air plane has made “dozens” of return trips between Miami, Colombia and Venezuela since Jan. 11, McClatchy’s research shows. This included 40 round trips from Miami International Airport to Caracas and Valencia (Venezuela) and Bogota and Medellin (Colombia). “GPS-Air has been the only company that has chartered it for the last few weeks to Valencia, Venezuela,” the lawyer told McClatchy. “CIA weapons shipment destined for #Venezuelan rebels?” Watkins tweeted wryly.
