This old CL-600 (delivered March 1982) was used for drugs smuggling activities in September 2020 and landed on an illegal airstrip on the banks of the Catatumbo River, in the Sur del Lago Maracaibo region in Venezuela close to the border with Colombia. After landing the aircraft was set on fire, and the burned wreck of this Challenger was discovered on 27 September 2020.
