I drove down that road about thirty years ago and started getting concerned about getting robbed. So at some point we turned around and drove back after seeing no houses or human life.
The vast majority of marijuana was smuggled by boat not plane. One shrimp boat could carry tons of grass compared to a small plane carrying a few hundred pounds.
200 pounds is nothing in California a couple years ago there was so much around they would sale one pound for $50 With just a ticket if they were picked up not a felony
Obviously you're new to Florida ? if you look at the Florida map. 90% of the roads are flat and long and straight, it dosnt need it to be paved to land a drug plane ... your road is one way in one way out , off load to a noisy air boat ???..the way it was done around me in the 80s full moon night ,come in low ,the swamp buggy s would light up the all the cross roads ,plane would taxi not stopping throwing out the bales. on the ground less then 10 minutes, buggys would go off in to the woods...
