# Mexican Pilot Expected to be Charged with Smuggling Illegal Aliens

25 January 2005; 8:15 PM EDT: While the FBI publicly asserts that the 
possible terrorist plot involving Chinese nationals against Boston last 
week was a false alarm, a small plane carrying four illegal Chinese 
immigrants and a pilot identified as a Mexican national landed at 
Stinson Municipal Airport in San Antonio Monday night. After landing, 
the airfield was surrounded by FBI and DHS officials. The four 
passengers - two women and two men carrying Chinese passports were taken 
into custody along with the Mexican pilot. The single-engine plane was 
intercepted after flying 125 miles from Eagle Pass, Texas to Stinson 
Airfield. The Mexican pilot is expected to be charged with smuggling 
illegal aliens, according to Alonzo Pena, special agent in charge of the 
Immigration and Customs Enforcement office in San Antonio.

The 1985 single engine Cessna is owned by Hameed Afzal, 48 and his wife, 
Alyce S. Taylor, 70 of San Antonio, Texas. Both Afzal and Taylor operate 
the ALPHA-TANGO Flying School, <http://www.alphatango-flying.com> 9623 
W. Terminal, San Antonio, Texas 78126. The 2003 San Antonio Municipal 
Directory lists Hameed Afzal as the President and Alyce S. Taylor as the 
Co-owner and instructor of the flight school. Their website advertises 
special consideration for potential Saudi pilots, and instructions on 
obtaining student visas.

Interesting Circumstances

News reports indicated that the plane that was carrying the Chinese 
passengers was last registered in 1999, carrying a three-year 
registration; no further registration records were found according to 
the FAA, despite renewal notices sent to Afzal. FAA records identify the 
plane as a 180 Horse Power, 1985 Lycoming/0-320 SERIES with the of 
N98873. Research by Northeast Intelligence Network analysts found an 
accident report associated with that plane dated August 21, 2000 that 
caused structural damage to the tail and horizontal stabilizer. 
According to the FAA report, the pilot held a valid Mexican private 
pilot certificate at the time of the accident.

Further research found that one notable flight student of the 
ALPHA-TANGO Flying School was none other than Abdul Hakim Murad, who was 
convicted several years ago of a plot to crash a suicide plane into CIA 
headquarters. Murad was also named as a co-conspirator of 1993 World 
Trade Center bombing with Ramzi Yousef. A report in the San Antonio 
Express-News following the 9/11 attacks states that flight school owner 
Afzal Hameed contacted the FBI as he believed that some of the 9/11 
hijackers might have received flight training at his school.
