Once aviators of this aircraft tried to smuggle things via the Dominican Republic up north (most probably the USA). The Cessna was intercepted by DR governmental influence (or by air intercept, or during a fuel stop of the aircraft in the Dominican Republic in 1997. The DR government discovered the illegal things that were carried out with the aircraft, and impounded the aircraft. Later on, they simply repainted the 207 in a military livery, allotted it a military serial in 1998, and voila... the Fuerza Aérea Dominicana was enforced with this fine Cessna 207.
