Overview
- The U.S.-registered Gulfstream G600 N318AG was held at Sauce Viejo after a request to fly abroad triggered checks by Customs, Migration and Senasa.
- Officials reviewed whether the jet was running untaxed charter trips with passengers who entered Argentina on other flights.
- The Chilean pilot said the aircraft was for private use, and local reporting says investigators confirmed that account before clearing the departure.
- La Capital reports the jet took off after the review and flew to Chile rather than the United States as first planned.
- Flight records show frequent recent legs across Santa Fe, Buenos Aires, Córdoba, Salta, Lima, Toronto and Teterboro, and the jet’s U.S. registration lists a Delaware trust with no detailed agency report released.
